The public gathered in Keighley on Sunday to remember the dead of the two World Wars and other conflicts of this century.

A two-minute silence was observed at 11am at the cenotaph in town Hall Square before wreaths were laid. Ex-servicemen and women were there to pay respects to their former colleagues.

Remembrance Day had started with around 250 people taking part in a parade from Russell Street led by the West Yorkshire Metropolitan Police Band. A service was held at Keighley Shared Parish Church before the groups reformed and marched to the cenotaph in Town Hall square.

After the wreath-laying ceremony there was a march past dignitaries who included Bradford's deputy Lord Mayor and Lady Mayoress Cllr Harry Mason and his wife Christine.

Keighley D-Day veteran Harry Dunn was once again in charge of the parade. It is the seventh year running the 74-year-old former Royal Marine has acted as parade marshall for the event.

In a distinguished career in the forces Mr Dunn, of Broomhill Drive, Keighley, served in Normandy, Holland and Belgium in the victorious Allied campaign across Western Europe in 1944-45. He was awarded the 1939-45 Star, the Atlantic Star, the France and Germany Star, the Defence Medal, the War Medal and the Medaille de Jubile for his role in the Normandy landings.
