The Queen and Hampshire Exhibition

About

Hampshire Archives have created a special exhibition, to mark Her Majesty The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee, which explores the Queen’s links with Hampshire.

The exhibition, which covers all 70 years of her reign, provides a fascinating insight into some of her many visits to the county, and the ways in which Hampshire people have celebrated milestones in her life and reign, including her Coronation and the Silver, Golden and Diamond Jubilees. The exhibition includes copies of photographs, letters and administrative records held by the Archives and Local Studies service at Hampshire Record Office.
