Chester Racecourse was the setting for an ‘at home’ hosted by the High Sheriff of Cheshire, Martin Beaumont.

On a balmy summer evening the High Sheriff and his guests enjoyed champagne and cocktails in the open air while suitably hot sounds from The Paradise Steel Band brought a taste of the Caribbean to the occasion.

Guests included the Sheriff of Chester, Councillor Angela Claydon, Cheshire County Show chairman Tony Garnett and his wife, Pamela, and the Vice Lord Lieutenant of Cheshire, Joelle Warren.
