April 18, 2025

SIMON ARMITAGE has said he is "excited" to receive the freedom of the City of London, despite being a northerner all his life.

The Poet Laureate, pictured left, who was brought up in Marsden, West Yorkshire, attended the ceremony on Wednesday at the Barbican Centre's Conservatory, the first time it was held there.

The Freedom ceremony is mostly held in the Chamberlain's Court at Guildhall or The Mansion House.
