Lymington and Pennington’s Proclamation of the King
/Crowds gathered at both Lymington and Pennington’s respective war memorials, on Sunday 11th September 2022, to hear the Accession Proclamation of the new King, Charles III.
The Town Mayor, Cllr James Hoare, delivered the proclamation, and commented;
“ It was an honour yesterday to be asked to make the Local Proclamation in Lymington and Pennington to announce the Accession of King Charles III. Although there was little time to publicise the event, some 100 people gathered at the War Memorial outside St Thomas church at 3pm. It was an emotional occasion, marking the end of HM Queen Elizabeth’s long reign, and the succession of King Charles. The traffic slowed respectfully when they saw what was happening.
I then went to the War Memorial in Pennington with my fellow Councillors where I read the Local Proclamation to a smaller group of residents at 4pm. The sun was out and I enjoyed sharing thoughts and feelings about this historic moment with everyone afterwards.”
The Town Mayor was joined by the Town Clerk, Louise Young, Hampshire County Councillor, Barry Dunning and Councillors from Lymington and Pennington, with the Deputy Town Mayor acting as Mace bearer and proceeding the Mayor to the ceremony.
Choir members from St Thomas’ Church Lymington attended, starting the National Anthem at the conclusion of the proclamation.
Many members of public attended with Sergeant Andrew Gwyer supporting the event.
