Hide AdPhillipa Malins, on the curatorial team of Cuckfield Museum, said: “Marcus Grimes has said there was a tremendous reaction from the public when they saw the numbers who died from one small village and realised how very young these men were. That is why the portraits will be up again this year in their office in the High Street for the week before Armistice time and over the Armistice weekend.”
Cuckfield Museum opened in 1981 as an independent museum that provides an insight into Cuckfield’s community, culture and past.
