Lindsay Hoyle lays a wreath at the memorial on Remembrance Sunday
After the Service of Remembrance at Chorley Cenotaph on Remembrance Sunday, a simple ceremony took place an hour later at the Pals Memorial.
Wreaths were laid by Lindsay Hoyle MP as Chairman of the Chorley Pals Memorial, Captain A. Beaver from the Territorial Army and a representative of the Chorley branch of the Royal British Legion.
Family members of Chorley Pals joined Trustees Steve Williams and John Garwood, local Councillors, former service personnel and members of the public to witness the five minute informal ceremony.
A similar ceremony is planned for 7.30 a.m. on Friday, 1st July 2011 – the 95th anniversary of the start of the Battle of the Somme.
