Parish Council News - Remembrance events

Message from David Sheran, Parish Council.

RUYTON XI TOWNS PARISH COUNCIL NEWSLETTER UPDATE

Ruyton Remembers This year is the centenary of the end of World War One. There is special significance because Remembrance Sunday will be 11th November and therefore exactly 100 years since the ceasefire. Ruyton XI Towns is marking the occasion in several ways: Large poppies have been attached to lamp posts throughout the village. You will see names on some of these poppies. They are the names of those from the parish who served and died in the conflict. A special service of remembrance will be held in St John the Baptist Church on Sunday 11 November. It will start at 10:45 to allow people to gather prior to the two minutes silence. Pupils, staff and parents from Packwood School will be attending as will people from the surrounding parishes of Great Ness and Little Ness. Following the service there will be a procession to the war memorial to lay wreaths. A beacon will be lit at 7:00pm on Sunday 11 November. This event is being fully supported by the Parish Council and is part of a nationwide initiative. More details about this event are available on the Parish Council website. Beacon of Light Ruyton XI Towns will be commemorating the Centenary of the end of the First World War by lighting a beacon as part of  a nationwide day of events. The huge 5 metre tall beacon will be lit at 7:00pm on Sunday 11th November after The Last Post which will be sounded by a pupil from Packwood School. Our local bell-ringers will ring out the peace at St John the Baptist Church and our town crier will join his voice with others throughout the world in an international Cry for Peace. At around 7:10 Wendy Lowdon will recite a World War One poem, and then a 'Tribute to the Millions' will be read by our vicar Lucinda.

Fwd: Ruyton Remembers Sir Frederick Kenyon of Pradoe

It is possible you received this email last night.

For anyone who has visited the acres of World War I headstones in France, you might be surprised to what extent someone from the Eleventowns was responsible.

As WWI drew to its close, the Government started to discuss what would be the best way to commemorate the millions of war dead, as well as uniting the scores of military cemeteries that were now scattered across Europe. 

 Various committees were set up to discuss the best ways of ensuring that all would be remembered equally. In July 1917, Fabian Ware appointed Edwin Lutyens and Herbert Baker as architects with Charles Aitkens, Director of The Tate, authors Sir James Barrie and Rudyard Kipling  to serve on a committee to bring their ideas forward.  They visited the battlefields and cemeteries then returned to formulate views for the various options and designs and were joined in September by Arthur William Hill, Assistant Director of Kew Gardens.

 Frustrated by the lack of progress, the Committee appointed Sir Frederic Kenyon, Director of the British Museum, to complete the deliberations and give a final decision on the way forward.  He was a classical scholar and in his report 'HOW THE WAR CEMETERIES ABROAD WILL BE DESIGNED', his proposals were based on the way the ancient Greeks in 5^th century Athens BC honoured their dead.  This was that 'In death all should be equal', no ranks or distinctions were shown as all had made the ultimate sacrifice. On this basis it was agreed that headstones of all the military cemeteries should be uniform and also should be maintained by the British Government in perpetuity.

His report was submitted to Fabian Ware in February 1918 and published in November of that year.  His feeling was that there would be great dissatisfaction in the country if the wealthy were able to raise elaborate tombs to their husbands and sons, but the poor would have none and be forgotten.  To this end the Commonwealth Headstone was designed, all the same colour and size, only the details of each man being given as an individual.   Architect Edwin Lutyens designed the look, layout and stone, with Rudyard Kipling and Sir James Barrie providing suggestions for the wording.  The Commonwealth War Cemeteries of the World are still designed and laid out as per Kenyon's original report.                               

His connections with Ruyton                    

The 11^th of the 15 children of John Robert Kenyon and Charlotte Louise Kenyon of Pradoe West Felton. 

He was born in London and married Amy Hunt, whose  sister was Dame Agnes Hunt of Boreatton.  His two sisters Eliza and Emma lived in The Cottage, School Road and played a prominent part in village life, ncluding raising money to build the War Memorial.
