Winston Barraclough (centre) and Bess Atkins marry at St Nicholas’s, Hornsea, East Yorkshire, last month. Mr and Mrs Barraclough, who are aged 86 and 94 respectively, are now Britain’s oldest-ever newly wed couple. Mrs Barraclough was first married at St Nicholas’s in 1939, days before the outbreak of war. The Revd Phillip Lamb (left) was delighted to marry the couple: “It was a brilliant day and very touching, I don’t think we’ll ever see anything like it again”
