The weekend of 15th August 2020 we commemorate the 75th anniversary of VJ day
Carolyn, Church Warden at St Michael's, has put together an amazing collection of facts, local memories, newspaper articles and photos - the PDF is available from St Michael's website http://www.stmichaels-horton.org/horton/horton-remembers.php. or from Google Shared Drive. If you can add anything please let us know!
NB
The research was started to provide a display for the VE Day Celebrations.
Covid-19 disrupted all our plans so this booklet is an attempt to utilise the research
that has been carried out over the past 18 months.
There is sure to be much more information available, which many residents will know and we would be delighted to hear about any stories/information you have about Horton in the Second World War.
