The commemoration remembered all the Allied soldiers who fought so bravely during the Gallipoli campaign of the First World War.
Seventy visitors attended the event, which began with a short interdenominational service conducted by Rev Dr Isaac Thompson from Cookstown Presbyterian Church, a former TA Chaplain. Regimental standards were paraded and wreaths laid during the Act of Remembrance. Bugler Crangle, dressed in First World War uniform, sounded the Last Post and Reveille and a piper from the Royal Irish Regiment also performed at the service.
After the Service Mr Eddie Lendrum gave an illustrated presentation on the Irish contribution to the Gallipoli campaign.
