Front Cover
This month’s cover shows what is believed to be a detach-
ment of the 1
st
Highland Brigade, Royal Field Artillery, which
was billeted in St Neots, pulling their gun carriages along
Church Street in Buckden, in autumn 1914 before they em-
barked for France, and was provided by Barry Jobling.
We are always looking for photos, images, drawings and
paintings to use on the front cover so please keep sending
them in. Please note that photos should ideally be in portrait
format and should be a
minimum
of 2400 x 1700 pixels.
More is better!

November 2018
Welcome to the November edition of Buckden Rounda-
bout. Halfway through compiling this edition of the
magazine, it felt like summer with a balmy 24 degrees
day (albeit with a bit of a breeze!). As I complete the
edition, it has certainly started to feel more like autumn!
Wet and windy does not really do it justice.
There are several events in the village in November
commemorating the 100th anniversary of the end of
WW1, as well as several articles in this edition. Please do
take the time to read them, and attend the events over
Remembrance weekend; there are events at other times
during the month as well. Details of the events can
mostly be found in the ‘For Your Diary’ section, but in
others places too.
Starting this month, we are giving the opportunity for
groups, organisation and facilities in the village the
chance to tell you what they do, when they meet, and
what you can do to participate or help out! We hope to
provide at least one per month, so if you are involved
with something happening in the village please do get in
touch and we can provide a space for you to promote
what you do and what you need.
Finally, our oft-repeated call for interesting articles for
inclusion in future editions!
Please remember to visit the Roundabout website.
There are often articles there that we could not fit into
the print edition, as well as information that arrives dur-
ing the month:
