Vice Chairman Jacqui Sewell Reads The Proclamation
This afternoon at 3.30pm, Vice Chairman of Broadwindsor Parish Group Council, Jacqui Sewell, read out the Proclamation of King Charles III.
The fact that the signs on the photograph state ‘Monarchs Way‘ appears to have an additional significance!

Our Queen Elizabeth II Has Died
Tributes are pouring in from around the world for our Queen, Elizabeth II who died earlier this afternoon at Balmoral in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, surrounded by her family.
At the age of 96 years old and reigning for over 70 years, many will have known no other monarch in their lives. The 2nd Elizabethan era has ended.
At the age of 73 years old, her son King Charles III spoke of the death of his beloved mother “We mourn profoundly the passing of a cherished sovereign and a much-loved mother.”
Buckingham Palace stated that the King and his wife, Camilla, now Queen Consort, will return to London tomorrow, Friday 9th.
Our country’s longest ever reigning monarch, our Queen remained alert, engaged and working until the very end. The new Prime Minister, Liz Truss, was appointed by the Queen just two days ago. Liz Truss said the Queen was” the rock on which modern Britain was built, who had provided us with the stability and strength that we needed“.
Queen Elizabeth II is survived by her four children, eight grandchildren and 12 great-grandchildren.
The UK will remain in a period of national mourning until the Queen’s state funeral after Buckingham Palace set in motion a detailed accession plan that has been honed over decades.
Operation London Bridge, as the Queen’s funeral plans are codenamed, will be combined with Operation Unicorn, the plan for a monarch dying at Balmoral, which is named after the national animal of Scotland.
The Queen Is Dead – Long Live The King!

Full Moon – Saturday, 10th September
Rising just after 8pm on Saturday evening, the Full Moon will brighten our skies. While September’s Full Moon is usually known as the Harvest Moon, if October’s Full Moon happens to occur closer to the autumnal equinox (September 23rd) than September’s, it takes on the name “Harvest Moon” instead. In this case, September’s Full Moon is referred to as the Corn Moon.
A transitional time between summer and autumn – many of the names (with the associated tribe) for this Full Moon reflects this:
- Autumn Moon (Cree)
- Falling Leaves Moon (Ojibwe)
- Leaves Turning Moon (Anishinaabe)
- Moon of Brown Leaves (Lakota)
- Yellow Leaf Moon (Assiniboine)
Other Indian tribes would refer to this moon as:
- Moon When the Plums Are Scarlet (Lakota Sioux)
- Moon When the Deer Paw the Earth (Omaha)
- Moon When the Calves Grow Hair (Sioux)
