Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

September 8th, 2022

Langar cum Barnstone Parish Council is saddened to record the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

An integral part of the fabric of British life for over 70 year, Her Majesty has been the only monarch most of us have known, a truly remarkable achievement. Her Majesty’s commitment to public duty has been an outstanding exemplar for the rest of the country to follow.

The Parish Council, on behalf of the residents of Langar and Barnstone, offers its condolences to the Royal Family at this sad time.
