Hugh Carey was a student at Appleby College. His name is inscribed on a tablet on the Memorial School building, shown above. The building was built as a memorial to the members of the Appleby Community killed in the Second World War. Every Remembrance Day the school Cadet Corps parades at a service in the Chapel, built as a memorial to those members of the Appleby Community killed in the First World War, and the names on the Honour Rolls from both World Wars are read out. -
