QuoteThe success of a trombone maker was sounded when top royal brass paid a visit.

Honley-based Michael Rath Brass Musical Instruments supplies musicians all over the world and was feeling over the moon when the Princess Royal accepted an invitation to come to its humble home on New Mill Road.

The company which was started by Mick Rath in 1996 and is now the only trombone maker in the UK, was handpicked from hundreds of UK businesses.

Curious crowds gathered along the Honley streets to watch the arrival of Princess Anne, who flew in by helicopter to nearby Holmfirth High School with the Vice Lord Lieutenant of West Yorkshire, Tim Hare, before arriving at the Honley works by car, flanked by police.
