Beacon lit in Berwick to mark Queen's Platinum Jubilee

Large crowds turned out in Berwick to watch a beacon being lit to mark the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee.

Several hundred people attended Thursday night’s event at Windmill Bastion on the town’s ramparts.

Piper Andrew Smith played and ‘A life lived with Grace’ was sung by The Golden Square Singers.

Earlier, town crier Jolly Roger read a royal proclamation from the town hall steps to kickstart proceedings.

Thanks to Alan and Susan Hughes for the pictures.
