Cascade of poppies an ‘enormously moving’ Remembrance tribute

Services have taken place across East Yorkshire and Lincolnshire to mark Remembrance Sunday.

A military parade preceded the service in Hull at the city’s Cenotaph.

Meanwhile, a ceremony was held at Lincoln Cathedral and featured a cascade of poppy petals that fell from the rafters during a two-minute silence.

The Dean of Lincoln, Dr Simon Jones, said: “The silence in itself means a huge amount, but then to accompany that with the symbolism of those poppies fluttering to the ground is enormously moving.”
