Abingdon and troops honour war dead


Troops from Dalton Barracks were there to remember those who died in past and present conflicts.

Stan Bradford, the president of the Abingdon Royal British Legion said he wanted to thank the people of Abingdon for one of the biggest turnouts he had seen over many years.

These are the Abingdon veterans leaving the war memorial (with thanks to Abingdon walks for the picture).

And afterwards, individual came to look at the wreathes, or leave their poppies in the strips of grass.
