TRIBUTES attached to Shoreham Tollbridge straight after the airshow disaster are on display in the town. 

Copies of some of the thousands of messages, remembering the eleven victims or supporting their families, can be seen at the Shoreham centre in Pond Road. 

The display running until Monday is part of the commemorations for the anniversary of the disaster last August 22. 

One message, addressed to the families affected, says: "Our community grieves with you and sends love to give you strength through each day."

Another says: "We were at the airshow and in shock, so we can't imagine how it is for you.

"We hope you will with time find some comfort and peace."

The display also includes a painting reflecting on the disaster by local artist Anthony Coppard. 

Mourners visited the display this afternoon following a memorial service at nearby St Mary de Haura Church. 

Eleven men were killed when a Hawker Hunter flying at the Shoreham Airshow failed to pull out of a loop manoeuvre and crashed into the A27. 

The wooden Shoreham tollbridge became a focal point for the community's grief and thousands of messages and tributes were left there. 

Archivists have preserved 1,900 messages, some written on scraps of paper or even ice cream tub lids and many battered by the weather. 

They can all now be seen at the West Sussex county records office in Chichester. 

On Monday, flowers will be laid and a minute's silence held on the tollbridge at 1.22pm - the exact time of the disaster.

Victims' families, emergency service officers and civic leaders are expected to attend.

Flags will be flown at half-mast at civic buildings across West Sussex.
