LEDBURY couple Dennis and Margaret Morton celebrated their diamond wedding anniversary yesterday (Thursday, July 24).
The plan to stretch their celebrations over a few days, and one of the highlights will be a meal and a large family gathering.
They have five children and six grandchildren.
The Leicester-born couple, who are both 81, first met at a VJ dance to mark the end of the Second World War.
They retired to Ledbury four years ago, where they live at New Mills.
They have received a card from the Queen, congratulating them on a long and happy marriage.
