SIXTEEN beacons were lit across the the North-west to mark the Jubilee.
Crowds gathered at Stockport's Heaton Mersey Park, Frodsham-on-the-hill in Cheshire, Blackpool Pier and Leasowe Castle Hotel in Moreton last night. In London, the Queen lit the last in a chain of almost 2,000 beacons across the UK.
