IT’S Remembrance Sunday next weekend when we particularly remember our war dead.

Now, a campaign is underway by the Horwich First Group to have roads, streets and avenues in the major new development at the old Horwich Loco Works named after the men who worked at the site and who gave their lives in both world wars.

This seems entirely appropriate. The development includes 1,700 new homes. These men gave their lives so others could live and this development of so many homes and lives offers one very respectful way to honour their memory and the huge sacrifice they made.
