A contingent of 150 Sea Cadets from Burnley, Accrington, Chorley, and Preston marched into Burnley centre on Sunday 19th October for the annual Trafalgar Day parade. Joined by naval ex-servicemen from associations in the district, the cadets started from the Burnley unit's headquarters in Stanley Street, and walked down Hammerton Street and along St. James's Street and Parker Lane to Grimshaw Street. The cadets marched with bayonets fixed and colours flying.
