Westbury’s annual Remembrance service will take place in the Market Place this weekend.
The service will begin at 10.55am on Sunday 9th November. The service is taking place in Market Place this year due to development works in the High Street.
The parade will assemble and move along Maristow Street before entering the Market Square. The Trowbridge Youth Band will provide a live band and bugler, while the town’s cadets and other uniformed groups will form the heart of the parade.
“The service will follow the traditional formalities of the Royal British Legion,” said Ryan Child, Events Manager at Westbury Town Council.
“All members of the public are invited to attend and pay their respects on a day that is always very well supported by the town.”
“Wreath layers are asked to congregate in the Market Place at the signed area. They will lay their wreaths at the drum altar. These wreaths will all be moved to the traditional war memorial after the service, where they will stay.”
Parking is available in the High Street, a short walk from the Market Place, which will be closed to the public from 9am to 1pm.
