Twentyfour Hours to Proclaim the King

St Breward Parish Council, as with all Parish and Town Councils, had only 24 hours to arrange a formal proclamation of the succession of King Charles III, being asked to conduct it as soon after 6pm on Sunday 11th September.

A quick decision was made to hold it at our War Memorial, looking out towards Wadebridge and the coast just before Sunset. The Met Office were forecasting 10% chance of rain. The next problem was what could we add to the actual proclamation to enhance and solemnise the occasion. Quick phone calls by our clerk, Anita Cornelius and councillors resulted in St Breward Church agreeing to say a prayer and St Breward Band agreeing to provide the music.

So, on Sunday evening 11th September at 7.30pm, 55 members of the community came together at the War Memorial on Mine Hill. St Breward Band played 'Evensong', followed by two prayers from Paddy McShee, one for HM Queen Elizabeth II and one for King Charles III. Denis Lusby, Chairman of the St Breward Parish Council read out the Proclamation, the band played the national anthem to which everyone sang.

As an aside: When the late Queen's coffin cortege made its way down the Royal Mile, in Edinburgh to St Giles Cathedral, she passed by kerb stones and bollards from DeLank quarry
