Crowds gathered on Burdon Road at Sunderland’s war memorial for the first Remembrance Sunday parade in two years, after it was cancelled in 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
As per tradition, onlookers fell silent at 11am as a mark of respect for those who died while in military service.
Here are 15 pictures taken at Sunderland’s Remembrance parade on Sunday, November 14.
