It's been somewhat of a 'double whammy' this month for the town of Alnwick. Not only has Bondgate Within won Google's Street Award for Best Shopping Street in the UK, it will also have the honour of Royal endorsement from the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh. The Royal visit is set for Wednesday the 22nd of June when the Town will hold a special party to recognise the valuable work of carers and volunteers from around the County. The event will take place in Alnwick Castle, The Alnwick Garden and a walk around Alnwick's town centre. With 8,000 people on the list of invitations it's going to be a busy day! An excellent reason to visit (or avoid!) Alnwick on the 22nd depending on your views. The Castle will be open to the public from 2.30pm to join in the celebrations, although normal entrance fees apply.
We would like to extend our congratulations to the Town's shopkeepers and businesses for creating such a brilliant, award-winning shopping experience. Click here for Your Guide to Alnwick's Shopping.
