Fivehead War Memorial – Rededication Ceremony Appeal

The War Memorial in Fivehead will be holding a Rededication ceremony at 2.30pm on Saturday 26th May 2018, having been awarded a grant from the War Memorials Trust. This will be the centenary of the last Fivehead man to have been killed in the First World War. Relatives are sought of the men listed on the Memorial, so that they can attend the service and the Village can show its appreciation for their sacrifice. There will be a service at the Memorial and St Martins Church with refreshments afterwards.

If you would like to attend or have details of any relatives, please contact Pip Brett (pipbrett@me.com), 01460 281115
