Remembrance Day

At 11 o’clock on 11 November the people of Sherborne stood in silence to remember those who have died in conflicts past and present.

Around the war memorial there were all ages, stopping for a moment to view the poppies and remember what this day means for us all.

Poppies are November’s blooms, a symbol of sacrifice and remembrance.

This year we have enhanced the war memorial with some permanent planters which we hope will renew the town’s tribute to those who have died, not just on Remembrance Day, but all the year round.
