.2018 marked 100 years since the end of the First World War. A cool and damp day did not prevent a good turnout of people paying their respects. The Meridale’s exhibition boasted new placards remembering the local residents who fought for us all.
After the remembrance service, as part of a UK wide project called Pages of the Sea, a portrait of Lieutenant Basil Hicks was drawn into the sand on the beach to be washed away by the tide later that afternoon.
