THE High Street will be closed briefly on Friday 11 November for a very short Service of Remembrance at the War Memorial to mark the anniversary of the 11am Armistice.

Passers-by and drivers who are in the town centre at the time of the short closure are invited to join Town Mayor John Saull and other dignitaries around the memorial.

The full annual Service of Remembrance will take place at St Swithun’s on Sunday 13 November, followed by a parade up London Road and a wreath-laying ceremony.
