Letchworth: Have you spotted Coronation bunting in our town centre

Whether you're a royal enthusiast or not, you can't deny there will be pomp and pageantry at the King's coronation - not to mention plenty of bunting up and down the land, including Letchworth.

Love Letchowrth said: "Bunting is starting to decorate the town ahead of the Kings Coronation, and the Love Letchworth Coronation Weekend Party! 

"Bunting and blossom… now all we need is some sunshine!"

The coronation of the former Prince Charles will officially take place on Saturday, May 6 – eight months on from his appointment as King on September 8 last year.

This is the first time a coronation ceremony is taking place on a weekend since 1902 when Edward VII was crowned King - and it has been confirmed that we will get a bank holiday to mark the occasion.

As the coronation itself will fall on a Saturday, the bank holiday will take place on Monday, May 8 2023, two days after the service at Westminster Abbey. 

And as you can see, Letchworth is gearing up to mark the occasion with bunting.

Send us your pics of how you are preparing to mark the occasion.
