A jubilee street party was attended by seven people who were also at a party for the Queen's coronation held nearly 70 years ago, in the same road.
Sandra Smith, Linda Dinsdale and Pauline Price were among those at Pinkett Street in Northwick today (Sunday) to enjoy the festivities nearly seven decades after they partied at a now-famous party in the street in 1953.
Pinkett Street has become well-known for hanging out the bunting and enjoying street parties - but it all started in 1953 when neighbours celebrated the start of Queen Elizabeth's reign.
Organiser Tony Fisher said: "This street has been doing loads of street parties since 1953. It’s traditional and it hasn’t changed a great deal.
"The only difference is when you play songs you play them off a computer. There’s still sandwiches and long tables.”
This year, the street's efforts were recognised when it was named by The Sun as one of the top five street parties in the country.
Sandra Smith, who is born and bred in Worcester, said: "It's nice to see everybody. We were a bit worried about the rain.
"In 1953, I was five and I remember going up the road with my Mum with her old fashioned pram collecting cakes.
"We celebrate royal weddings, jubilees, V-day, and the Queen-Mother's 100th birthday, but the best one was 10 years ago when we celebrated the Queen's diamond jubilee."
This year, adults and children celebrated the Queen's Platinum Jubilee with face-painting, raffle games and a bouncy castle throughout the day.
Children were kept entertained with a range of different games while adults enjoyed a selection of homemade food.
There was even a fancy dress competition for children to take part in and a raffle.
And members of the public, like Edward Lloyd-Jones, came dressed for the occasion.
Mr Llod-Jones said: "It's been a wonderful replay of 10 years ago when we celebrated the last jubilee, but this time it's been dry.
"The last party had torrential rain."
Tony Fisher helped organise the event and said it had been a great success.
He said: “When the pandemic hit, the sense of community bled threw that and some people didn’t even know each other before."
