Her Majesty opened Mill Farm in 1987 and it seems very fitting that we fondly remember her in this way.”Chair of the Friends of Almondell, Stuart Appleyard said: “I am amazed and honoured that the work of a small group of volunteers has been nationally recognised in this way.
It is something that we and our community of visitors can enjoy and be proud custodians of this special tree and the hope it symbolises.”For enquires about the QGC please contact: press@queensgreencanopy.org Don't miss the latest news from
