We pay tribute to Queen Elizabeth II, the longest-reigning British monarch, looking back at her many visits to the county.
As the country enters a period of mourning we reflect on Her Majesty’s memorable moments spent in the county.
Her visits brought joy and comfort to those lucky enough to meet her over the past seventy years.
