Neston Remembers Them at the Remembrance Sunday Parade

Residents gathered to commemorate loved ones lost to war.

In a parade, church service and wreath-laying at Neston's Cenotaph, this year's remembrance event was as touching as years gone by.

The parade was once again led by the sounds of the Wirral Pipe Band and Clan McKay Drummers, and included decorated veterans, local dignitaries and representatives from various Neston clubs and organisations; a crowd of family and friends watched on in respect.

Starting from the Royal British Legion on Chester Road, the Parade proceeded along the High Street, and concluded at St Mary and St Helen's Parish Church. There was a church service, followed by wreath-laying at the Cenotaph, with a minute's silence observed.

Roads were closed to allow free movement of the parade, as onlookers shared in the sombre, yet prideful atmosphere.

The moving display at St Thomas' Church in Parkgate was a further fitting tribute to our fallen.
