Ashbourne remembers those lost and fallen in war with one of the largest parades in Derbyshire.

All timings approximate.

The procession participants gather in the Market Place outside the ex-servicemens club at around 10am. There will be veterans, serving military, cadets, councillors, fire service personnel, cubs, scout, guides and so forth plus the town band.

At around 10:10 the roads close and the parade, headed by the band, makes its way along St John Street and Church Street to St Oswalds for a service at around 10:30. At around 11:20 the roads close again and the parade reforms and makes its way to the war memorial where wreaths are laid, the last post is played and there is a short speech.

Finally at around 12:00 the parade reforms again and makes its way back to the Market Place.

It‘s a rolling road closure with roads closing and reopening depending on where the parade is - expect long delays.

The best of the rest

There is so much more out there to see - we can't show them all, but here are a few.... (more coming...)
