Parishes across West Oxfordshire will be receiving benches to mark the Queen's Golden Jubilee thanks to the district council.

Mary Neale centre with the benches, euroservices manager Bob Lightfoot, and Elsa Taylor from Rusco.

The wooden benches, with a commemorative plaque, are being supplied by Rusco Outdoor Furniture, based at Little Faringdon Mill.

The first 40 of the 80 benches are now at the council's depot in Witney.

Cabinet member Mary Neale said: "We wanted to mark the Golden Jubilee with something tangible and ideas were put forward by councillors last year.

"Donating a wooden bench for each parish was chosen as a way of ensuring the gift is spread equally."
