Flackwell Heath Silver Band was founded in 1906, with bandmaster Mr Gomm. Their conductor was W.J. Burnham through the 1920’s and William Henry Stanley in the early 1930’s. It disbanded some time before WW2. Two other bands graced the village with their music – an earlier Flackwell Heath Gospel Mission Brass Band had existed in 1890, and the Flackwell Heath Concert and Youth Band was active in the 1970’s.
