Alderley Edge pays tribute to the fallen on Remembrance Sunday

Alderley Edge marked Remembrance Day this afternoon with a parade and church service to honour those who fought and lost their lives whilst serving for their country.

Organised by the Alderley Edge branch of the Royal British Legion, the parade departed from the Festival Hall and marched along Moss Lane, Trafford Road and Chapel Road before proceeding down London Road to the war memorial.

Residents lined the streets to pay their respects and observe the parade which included the Deputy Lieutenant of Cheshire and members from the Royal British Legion, Alderley Edge Parish Council, clergy, Cheshire Police, British Red Cross, RVS and Wilmslow Lions. They were joined in the parade by local scouts, cubs, beavers, guides, brownies and rainbows.

Following prayers and the wreath laying ceremony the parade marched back up London Road and Chapel Road to the Methodist Church for the Service of Remembrance.
