Westbury Manor are also staging a series of related exhibits. They will highlight the part played by the people of Fareham and pay tribute to those who lost their lives, demonstrating the impact on Fareham in human terms.
Central to the exhibition will be a restaging of the excellent "Lost Sons of Fareham display" researched and produced by Innes Marlow.
There will also be a roll call of names of local people who signed up and served through to the end of the fighting.
