Recent changes to make the pavements and walkways more accessible means less able-bodied people can also easily get around. The ancient market is still retained every Wednesday. The Wiltshire Farmers Market also comes to the town on the fourth Saturday of every month. The Royal British Legion of Wootten Bassett started the idea of lining the high street and saluting in respect of the passing cortege.
As the hearses approach, the tenor bell of St Bartholomew's Church begins to toll. Business stops while shoppers and shopkeepers join the crowds lining the pavement. When the cortege reaches the war memorial, the president of the British Legion says a single word,"Up", to mark the moment when ex- and serving members of the forces should begin their salute, "Down," he says 60 seconds later, as the hearses move on.
The British Legion get notified by RAF Lyneham when there will be a funeral procession but people wanting to take part as interested on-lookers have been known to wait for up to 3 hours to view the proceedings. It means an end to the scenes in the Wiltshire town of Wootton Bassett, where crowds have lined the streets to pay their respects to the fallen - the town has been renamed Royal Wootton Bassett to recognise its efforts.
