A project is being developed in Ashington in preparation of the 80th Anniversary of the ending of World War II in 2025.
Ashington Cricket Club being supported by Ashington Town Council, is working with the Royal British Legion and Reiverdale Scout Group on the project. The plan is to place a personalised commemorative plaque alongside 175 trees commemorating the individual service members from Ashington, who made the ultimate sacrifice in the war.
The trees in the Cricket Club ground and surrounding area were planted after World War II in memory of each person from the town who lost their life in the war. The project will enhance the existing memorial trees as well as planting new trees to replace trees damaged and lost over the years.
