Council tribute to the Manchester bomb victims in Broadfield Park
Rochdale Council has completed a new floral tribute to the Manchester bomb victims in Broadfield Park.
The worker bee became a symbol of Manchester following the hard work and ‘hive of activity’ during the Industrial Revolution and represents the city’s innovative and enterprising past.
Bees can be found gracing various surfaces across Manchester from bins, lampposts and bollards to the floor tiles in Manchester Town Hall and in the city’s coat of arms, granted in 1842.
