Queen's Golden Jubilee Celebrations 3 June 2002
As our neighbouring village of Scothern was celebrating the event over a four day period with a number of attractions already organised, it was felt it would be unfair for us to clash with these attractions and so the Sudbrooke Parish Council decided to do something a little different.
It was decided to re-develop some land at the rear of the Millenium Stone into an area which will contain some specimen shrubs of a type to attract wildlife, some carved seats supplied by our village Woodcarving Group and a stand containing a coloured map of Sudbrooke together with another map showing footpath walks around the village to celebrate the Diamond Jubilee of the Queen in June 2012.
This will remain as a reminder of the event and provide an area which can be enjoyed for many years to come.
Clearance of the untidy vegetation is shown in the photographs of progress.

We had an offer to produce the map of the village completely free of charge. For this, we thank Lisa Broadbent who resides in the village.
We also received sponsorship for the shrubs to be planted on site via another resident Adrian Morvinson who runs "Just Audi/VW" a car dealership on Outer Circle Road in Lincoln.
We still had to find money to provide the stand(s) for the map but our application to receive funding for this was accepted by West Lindey District Council who had set aside some funding for this and Olympic Games related events.
