Preston will commemorate 100 years since the end of World War I with various Remembrance Sunday services taking place around the city.

In this centenary year, Prestonians will gather to pay tribute to the millions killed or wounded in battle, and those on the home front who helped preserve peace and freedom.

Here’s a selection of the services that will be taking place on Sunday 11 November.

Preston Minster, Church Street

At 6am Pipe Major Bill Barlow from City of Preston Pipes and Drums will perform the traditional Scottish lament played at the end of the battle, Battles O’er, at Preston Minster. He will be one of 1,000 lone pipers around the world to take part in the Battles Over project.

Cenotaph, Flag Market

At 10.40am a parade led by the Lancastrian Brigade Corps of Drums and Brindle Band will leave the Preston Market canopies before moving along Lancaster Road to Church Street and Cheapside, then on to the Cenotaph. A two-minute silence will be held at 11am before the Service of Remembrance begins.
