The other 12 locations that they are installed at are:

• Urban Road, Kirkby-in-Ashfield
• Portland Square, Sutton-in-Ashfield
• Badger Box, Annesley

In addition to the light displays, three Remembrance Day commemorations took place yesterday (Sunday 13 November) in Hucknall, Sutton and Kirkby. Each parade consisted of a short service, a wreath laying and a two-minute silence at each of the cenotaphs.

Chief Executive of the Council, Theresa Hodgkinson said: "The annual commemorations are a significant annual date that stands as a reminder to us all. We are proud to see the Poppy Lights shine as a reminder of those who gave their lives and as we honour their memory."
