Remembrance Sunday events, parades, and services have taken place across the county today, to honour the servicemen and women who have lost their lives in conflict.
In Hereford, hundreds gathered in St Peter's Square near the war memorial, to pay their respects at the annual service.
The parade, which is the largest in the county, saw many veterans, cadets, and representatives of the armed forces march onto the city centre street for the ceremony.
Hymns, readings, and prayers were all heard at the event, with hundreds singing the national anthem as the cadets and veterans stood proudly.
Several representatives of the city were in attendance, including the high sheriff, and the Lord Lieutenant of Herefordshire who all laid wreaths.
In Ross-On-Wye, large crowds gathered at The Prospect and St Mary's Church where a parade and service were held, which featured veterans and cadets.
In Bromyard, crowds gathered to watch the parade which formed in Tenbury Road. They marched through the market town towards St Peter's Church for a brief service, led by Reverend Phil Miller. This also included the wreath-laying ceremony.
Yesterday (November 9) staff at Herefordshire Archives and Records Centre held an act of remembrance to honour those who had lost their lives in Rotherwas.
The names read out included those working at the factory, civilians living near the factory and those killed in the bombing of 1942.
In Leominster, a parade marched off from Broad Street to the Priory Church for a service, which moved out to the cenotaph at 10.50am. A two-minute silence was then observed followed by wreath-laying.
The Ledbury Remembrance Day service and parade included a service at the war memorial, followed by a service in St Michael and All Angels Church.
There have been some touching tributes around the city, On Broad Street, a knitted post box topper commemorating the day could be seen, with a pair of green knitted boots standing proudly on top.
In St Owen’s Street, near where hundreds gathered for the parade, a figure made out of poppies is sat on the bench outside the Town Hall.
