The Last Parade: A Historic Gathering at the Royal Oak Inn". In this photo print, we are transported back to a bygone era, where time seems to stand still. The 400-year-old antique Royal Oak Inn proudly stands amidst the rustic charm of Pillaton village in Cornwall. Its weathered walls and thatched roof bear witness to centuries of stories and memories. This particular moment frozen in time takes us back to October 29th, 1944, during the tumultuous years of World War II. The inn served as a meeting place for the esteemed "Fallin of the Pillaton G Platoon". Number 2 Company Home Guard - an exclusive group comprised solely of farmers turned soldiers. As they gather before disbanding after their final parade, these brave volunteers can be seen enjoying a well-deserved drink and engaging in lively conversation. Their uniforms speak volumes about their dedication and commitment to protecting their homeland during those challenging times. The towering presence of St. Odolphus Church casts its protective shadow over this historic scene, symbolizing both faith and resilience within the community. This picturesque setting encapsulates not only the spirit of wartime Britain but also showcases how ordinary individuals came together to defend their way of life. Preserved through Lewis's lens from Memory Lane Prints, this remarkable photograph captures a poignant chapter in history - one that reminds us all of sacrifice, camaraderie, and unwavering determination in times of adversity.
