They then moved on to the parish church for a service.

In Wells, wreaths were laid at the memorial prior to a service at the Congregational Church.

Wreaths were also laid at Holkham war memorial before a service at Holkham Park.

Earlier in the week, on Armistice Day, a service took place at Alderman Peel High School before some students joined RBL members to lay poppies at war graves.

They observed two minutes' silence at the town’s war memorial, before laying wreaths at North Creake airfield.
