Cathedral Coventry Handbag Visits Walking Consecration
EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in this iconic print from Coventry Telegraph's Memory Lane Prints collection, we witness a momentous occasion - the consecration day of Coventry's new cathedral on 25th May 1962. The image showcases the graceful arrival of Princess Margaret at Hotel Leofric for a delightful lunch, surrounded by an air of excitement and anticipation. Radiating elegance and poise, Princess Margaret is seen walking with a beaming smile alongside Mr. J. R. Wearmouth, the esteemed general manager of the hotel. Her fashionable handbag and stylish hat add to her regal charm as she graciously acknowledges the crowd gathered to catch a glimpse of royalty. This snapshot not only captures a significant historical event but also symbolizes unity and hope during post-war reconstruction. The consecration day marked an important milestone for Coventry's resilience and determination to rebuild after World War II devastation. Coventry Telegraph's Memory Lane Prints allows us to relive these extraordinary moments that shaped our city's history. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come while honoring those who played pivotal roles in shaping our community. As we gaze upon this photograph, it evokes feelings of pride, nostalgia, and admiration for both Princess Margaret and all those involved in bringing forth Coventry's magnificent new cathedral.
