Remembrance Sunday

The road through Salcombe is closed this morning for the Remembrance parade. First come the standards from the British Legion and the RNLI, followed by the lifeboat crew.

Next are the ex-servicemen and police.

And finally, the good people of Salcombe.

We walk up the hill to the cenotaph overlooking the estuary for the service, which is very well attended. Everyone and everything stops, and even in the commercial hotspot that is Salcombe, shops are closed.

The ladies and gentlemen from the rowing club pulled up below the cenotaph for the service.

A sombre and moving morning. Lest we forget.
