Crowds gathered to pay their respects to those who have died in battle on a weekend of Remembrance events in Morecambe, Lancaster and Carnforth.

The traditional Remembrance Sunday procession was held in Morecambe, starting at The Platform and making its way to the War Memorial on the Promenade for a service and two minute silence.

In Lancaster, there was a service in the Priory Church on Sunday morning, followed by a procession through the city to Lancaster Town Hall and a service in the Garden of Remembrance.

In Carnforth, a procession was held from the council offices on Market Street to the War Memorial for a remembrance service.

There was also a series of events in Carnforth over the weekend to mark the 100th birthday of the town's War Memorial.

This included a re-enactment of the original unveiling ceremony in 1924, and civic and military parade on Saturday, attended by Lord and Lady Cavendish, Amanda Parker, the Lord Lieutenant of Lancashire, Helen Bingley, the High Sheriff of Lancashire, Lizzi Collinge MP and other local dignitaries.

Here are more images from the weekend's events.
