Members of the Alford community came together yesterday (November 11) during a moving Armistice Day service.
At 11am on the 11th day of the 11th month, people up and down the UK commemorated the end of the First World War - and paused to remember those who gave their lives in conflict.
The Royal British Legion and church members were joined by school children, cadets and teachers for the Alford service at the war memorial in the grounds of St Wilfrid’s Church.
It was held against the backdrop of several impressive poppy displays, including a large war horse and foal made from wire, a war plane, a cascade of poppies and a ring of poppy nets around the perimeter of the churchyard.
Photographer Barry Robinson went along to capture the event.
