As we approach Remembrance Day on Saturday, November 11 – we are taking a look across the Mansfield area at some “touching” memorial displays.

Remembrance Day is held on November 11 to honour armed forces members who have died in the line of duty.

This Remembrance Sunday will fall on November 12, with parades and events planned across the area.

Here are some memorial displays that have popped up in recent weeks to remember the fallen.
