Molton Monthly - July 2022 Welcome to the July edition of Molton Monthly. This month we bring you nine pages documenting your photos of the Queen’s historic Platinum Jubilee celebrations from communities around our area - plus a special portrait of Queen Elizabeth commissioned to mark her 70 year reign. The cover photo by Sophie Townsend captures the joy of people coming together, showing the group who hand stitched 70 bunting flags displayed in North Molton. Did you see the Devon Flag being waved among the massive crowds on the Mall during the Platinum Party at the Palace? It was a fitting tribute on Devon Day, June 4th.
