As the world mourns the Queen, who has died aged 96, we've taken a look through our archives at some of her visits to Cumbria. Chairman of Eden District Council, Douglas Banks, said: “As the civic representative for Eden, I would like to pass on the district’s sympathy to the Royal family. We were honoured to welcome Her Majesty to Eden on several occasions: her visits were warmly received and cherished by those fortunate enough to see her." The Queen had a smile on her face as she met children during her visit to Keswick School in 1998 — or was it because of Ross Brewster’s embarrassing moment? Ullswater Community College student 17-year-old Helen Holliday, of Hackthorpe, makes a surprise presentation to the Queen of a cookery book compiled and published by pupils. Her Majesty unveils a plaque to commemorative the opening of the food centre with Bob Clark, the chief executive of CREA The Queen and Prince Philip chat to Jim and Amanda Hodge, who then operated The Pie Mill, during the Redhills visit in 2008 Did you meet the Queen when she visited the area?
