HENFIELD THEN AND NOW

remembrance day 2014

There's always a good turnout from the village for the annual Remembrance Day commemoration on the second Sunday in November. Various association - Guides, Scouts, Fireman, ex-Servicemen, Councillors, etc., meet outside the Henfield Club in Cagefoot Lane. The procession walks to the church for a short ceremony, then returns for the formal memorial and 2-minute silence outside the club - with a band playing both ways. Prayers and readings are from the local clergy, and the Last Post is played.

MISCELLANY 14


Remembrance Day 1-10: These photographs were taken by Kenneth McIntosh at the 2014 ceremony - one hundred years after the outbreak of WW1. They show parts of the church procession, the silence in Cagefoot Lane, the priests and a view through the flags from the upstairs room of the Club.
