Remembrance Parades

CLERGY, Choir and Congregation from Southwell Minster will be joining Royal British Legion members at Southwell Burgage Green War Memorial from 10.30am on Sunday 9th November for the 2014 Remembrance Parade.

All residents are invited to join them for the two minutes silence at 11am and Wreath Laying by representatives from RBL and Southwell Town Council together with other uniformed groups.

The parade will then move to the Southwell Minster for the Main Service and afterwards to the War Memorial at the Recreation Ground gates where the RBL will lay a wreath.

The annual Armistice Day service on Tuesday 11th November at 11am will this year be held within Southwell Minster grounds just inside the West Gate entrance at the top of Broad Walk, with the twin spires in the background. This is a change from the traditional venue of Southwell Market Place.
