A MEMBER of the Royal Family visited Flintshire on Tuesday.

Princess Anne, Queen Elizabeth II's daughter, landed on a rugby pitch Mold via helicopter to visit the Citizens Advice Bureau in the town - of which she is a patron of.

An update on the Royal Family's website said: "The Princess Royal, Patron, the National Association of Citizens Advice Bureaux, this morning visited the Flintshire Bureau, the District Office, Terrig House, Chester Street, Mold, and was received by Her Majesty's Lord-Lieutenant of Clwyd (Mr. Henry Fetherstonhaugh)."

Princess Anne is the second child and only daughter of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh. She is 16th in the line of succession to the British throne and has been Princess Royal since 1987.

In 1976, she became the first member of the British royal family to have competed in the Olympic Games - competing in the Equestrian event.
