A UNIQUE display of patriotism came to Lymm over the bank holiday weekend, which was used to mark the coronation of King Charles III.
Lymm Rocks is a community group made up of residents of Lymm village who come together to 'brighten up the days of others.'
The group takes time to lovingly paint individual rocks, and they then hide them for others to find, which the group hopes brings joy to those who find them.
To mark the coronation of King Charles III, Lymm Rocks came together once again to spread joy around the village.
Using hundreds of rocks in a special Coronation Day display, Lymm Rocks created a version of St Edward's crown, which could be seen as it was used during the coronation ceremony on Saturday, May 6.
Almost 500 rocks were used in the display that brightened up proceedings during Coronation Day, and the rocks were painted by members of the village's community, not just Lymm Rocks.
As well as the painting group, other groups helped create the regal display, including Friends of Lymm Library, The HIMOS Hub, and Holly Grange Montessori Nursery, who all teamed up with the members of Lymm Rocks.
Helen Nelson helps to organise the rock painting group, she said: "The members of Lymm Rocks are hobby painters who paint kindness rocks to hide in the community. These rocks brighten the days of others when they are found.
"Rocks are painted and then hidden."
The group has been running since 2018, and has hidden thousands of painted rocks over the past five years.
Helen added: "Lymm Rock painting is not about creating a masterpiece, it is about painting something to hide, so it can be found and bring smiles to others."
