TOWNS and villages across the district paid tribute to those who served in the two world wars and other conflicts with a number of ceremonies yesterday.
Remembrance 2018, which also commemorated 100 years since the end of the first world war, was marked with traditional services.
In Kirkbymoorside, the town brass band led the parade.

This video of the parade in Malton was sent in by Mathew Banks:
Across the district, community groups, schools and volunteers helped create thousands of poppies which were used to form art installations.
Churches were garlanded with poppies, including this display in Pickering:
Our wonderful display of poppies around our war memorial. Called simply 'A Moment of Silence' it has been created with poppies by people from not just Pickering, but from far afield so a HUGE thank you to who made this possible. We asked for 1000 and you made us over 2000! pic.twitter.com/cnpofnhCUa

Others took part in the Remembered charity's "There But Not There" - a commemorative campaign using symbolic silhouettes to remember those who died in communities across the country.
