Remembrance Day 2018: How Mablethorpe and Sutton on Sea remembered our World War One heroes on Armistice 100
A wide array of events happened on the day that both coastal towns can be proud of.
Sutton on Sea made national news after the beach in the coastal resort was the only one in Lincolnshire to be part of special commemoration event, ‘Pages of the Sea’, that was headed up by famous film maker, Danny Boyle.

Hide AdProject ambassadors raked the portrait of Lieutenant Basil Perrin Hicks onto the sand and the view of the final image from the air was a true spectacle.
There was also two lots of wreath laying and prayers at Sutton on Sea War Memorial, as well as a war exhibition at The Meridale Centre.
Then in Mablethorpe, again there was wreath laying and prayers at both Mablethorpe War Memorial and the RNLI Lifeboat Station.
