Remembrance Sunday Services Held Across East Yorkshire and Lincolnshire
Remembrance Sunday services were held across East Yorkshire and Lincolnshire to commemorate those who have died in service. In Hull, a military parade took place before a service at the city's Cenotaph. At Lincoln Cathedral, a ceremony included a cascade of poppy petals that fell during a two-minute silence.
The Dean of Lincoln, Dr Simon Jones, described the event as "enormously moving", noting that about 1,700 people attended from various backgrounds. A service was also held at the International Bomber Command Centre. Hull Minster held a Remembrance-themed holy communion service during which the names of 2,742 men from Hull who died in World War One were read aloud.
On Wednesday 11 November, smaller Armistice Day services will be held at the Cenotaph in Hull and at Lincoln's war memorial. Both events will observe a two-minute silence at 11:00 GMT to mark the moment the World War One armistice came into effect on 11 November 1918.
