We will congregate at the Heugh Battery Museum at 8am and make our way to the Redheugh Memorial Gardens, where we will read the names of the children, soldiers and sailors who lost their lives in this brief but brutal event, and plant crosses in their memory.  We invite you to play an active part in this by planting the crosses or laying a wreath.
