Residents in the Knowsley Village area are gearing up for a special Queen’s Jubilee parade which pays homage to the area’s “rich history” of hosting royal celebrations.
The parade, taking place on June 4 and based on the theme of ‘Kings Queens and Mr Lear’, draws on the area’s folklore and its association with celebrated poet and artist Edward Lear, who once lived at Knowsley Hall. Residents in the area have been asked to take part in what’s expected to be a colourful parade.
Officially starting at 2pm, the parade will require a number of road closures in the Knowsley village area, with the route starting at St John Fisher Parish Church and finishing at Tithebarn Road in Knowsley Village. The parade is expected to last up to 45 minutes as it covers a one mile route, however the road closures will be in place for longer in preparation.
