Why flags could be seen across part of Cirencester at the weekend

A VILLAGE on the edge of Cirencester was transformed into an area of colour and design over the weekend as houses and businesses flew flags for the area.

Stratton’s Flaggery Day and weekend was established by Stratton resident and historian Jay Haigh.

The date of Flaggery Day was Saturday, November 2.

Stratton Village Hall in Thessaly Road hosted a history display, while its next-door neighbour, Stratton Primary School, was decorated by flags and banners along its fence.

There was more art and information at Stratton House Hotel & Spa, which displayed a history banner and one of the event’s larger flags.

The latter was produced by Teresa Forrest, a resident of Aura Care Living’s Stratton Court retirement village.
