A parish in the Moorlands joined the nation in celebrating the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee earlier this month – and also renamed a public open space as part of the occasion. The celebratory weekend in Checkley parish began with a floral display in Christ Church which was open to the public for three days; while there was entertainment from the Tean Community Singers at Tean Park on the Thursday between 9pm and 10pm as well as the Lighting of the Beacon at Tean Park and Raddle Hollington at 9.45pm.
