Grantham's Roll and Scroll creates bench in memory of Queen Elizabeth II

A metal fabricators company in Grantham has created a bench in tribute to Queen Elizabeth II, which they hope will be placed on St Peter's Hill.

Workers from Roll and Scroll created the bench as a tribute to the Queen, and it was placed in Woolsthorpe Park in Colsterworth until 5pm on the day on the Queen's funeral, on Monday.

Chris Kennedy, bench maker from Roll and Scroll, said: "The bench was made in memory of our Queen Elizabeth II.

"It is very important to all of us. We have now lost our great queen Elizabeth II and we will never be another queen like this in our lifetime!"

Roll and Scroll have previously created benches in memory of WWI soldiers and animals.

Chris hopes this bench will be placed on St Peter's Hill, along with others he has made to honour the Armed Forces and NHS.

Chris added: "I’ve got to have a meeting with the council to see where the bench will be placed on St Peters Hill, hopefully in a couple of days.

"We will have this meeting and find out where the bench will go."
