Click picture to enlarge.

The Armistice Day - Remembrance Sunday Poppy Memorial to the villagers who lost their lives during the WW1 and WW2 conflicts is back on the corner of Horsham Lane - wrapped around the Upchurch village sign.

The Memorial was manufactured and fitted by the Boakes family and staff of Boakes Joinery, Upchurch.

Each of the poppies has on it one name of the deceased and the conflict in which they died.

The plaque reads:
“A TRIBUTE TO

The Brave Souls from Upchurch

That made the Ultimate Sacrifice”

The single poppy to George Willson Sellen who died during The Boer War is back on the gable end of the bus shelter, along with a new giant poppy on the inside.
