Culver Beacon To Be Lit As 80th D-Day Anniversary Marked

The beacon atop Culver Down will be lit as part of the national commemoration of the 80th anniversary of the D-Day landings.

Bembridge Parish Council has arranged the service with the Archdeacon Steve Daughtery leading the event. He'll be joined by Reverend David Plumb at the event on the 6th June.

The Brading Community Choir will perform from 8:40pm on the night, with the Ryde Army and Sea Cadets also attending.

The whole service should be complete by around 9:30pm.

Those wishing to head to the event are told that parking nearby is limited.
