'We shall remember them': today's Remembrance Sunday parade in York

The parade - which included members of York-based 2 Signal Regiment, as well as the 4th Battalion, The Yorkshire Regiment, The Queen’s Own Yeomanry (based in York and Newcastle), and the 4th Regiment Royal Artillery (based in Topcliffe, Thirsk) marched up Coney Street, past the Mansion House and the Museum Gardens and over Lendal Bridge en route to Memorial Gardens.

There, the Lord Mayor of York Cllr David Carr and the Lord Lieutenant of North Yorkshire Jo Ropner led a wreath-laying ceremony.

Just before 11am the Last Post sounded, and there was a reading of the poem 'They Shall Not Be Forgotten', ahead of a two minute's silence.

The wreath laying followed.
