She said the other church warden and “a little team of bell ringers” had come to haul the cascade from the ground up to the top of the church tower, where it was fastened to the flagpole.
“Then it comes all the way down the tower and spreads out on the grass beneath,” Ms Baglin-Jones said.
“We think it was 75ft (22m) when we finished it, and it got wider as it came towards the bottom of it, so it really does look magnificent,” she said.
Rector Harriet Orridge said it represented “a wonderful community effort in creating this stunning reminder of the effort and sacrifice made by many in bringing peace to the world 80 years ago”.
Ms Baglin-Jones said the village was “very proud of its history”.
“There are endless fascinating stories,” she added.
