Commemorating a moment in history
9 May 2023
Ross-on-Wye Town Council were delighted to gift the school children in the Town Council parish a mug to commemorate the Coronation of His Majesty King Charles III.
The Communities, Markets and Tourism Sub-Committee wanted to provide a souvenir to all primary school and nursery aged children in the town council parish to commemorate the Coronation and to remind them of this historical event in years to come.
Pupils at Abacus 2000, Ashfield Park Primary School, Brampton Abbotts C of E Primary School, Ross Pre School Playgroup, Spring Gate Nursery and St Joseph’s Catholic Primary School all received their commemorative mugs a week before the coronation weekend from the Mayor of Ross-on-Wye, Cllr Ed O’Driscoll.
The mugs were purchased from a company from Ukraine called Berkeley Studio that had relocated to North Herefordshire last year due to their production shop being destroyed in the War.
