Row On Row

03175 2015-11-12 Pitt Crosses Crane 3+

Thousands of small wooden crosses, with names and a poppy, were placed in Pitt Park, east Belfast, between November 1st and 11th to commemorate those who fell during WWI. The Last Post was sounded each night at 8. We present here four images of the scene. The event and a similar one on the Shankill (both going by the name Row By Row) were organised by the Dr. Pitt Park Centenary Committee and the Royal British Legion. (City Council minutes)
