Centenary of the 1907 Romsey Pagent

Broadlands GardensThe 400th Anniversary of the Royal Charter was celebrated in the town with numerous events including the planting of Mulberry trees in each of Romsey Infras three wards. The highlight of the celebrations was a visit by Her Majesty the Queen and his Royal Highness, the Duke of Edinburgh on 8 June 2007.

A Charter Celebration Service was held in Romsey Abbey. Her Majesty unveiled the Charter Stone near the old Magistrates Court and then did a walkabout in Church Street and the Market Place, meeting many hundreds of Romsey Citizens before attending a reception in Romsey Town Hall.
