A giant poppy has been erected on the side of a building to mark Armistice Day.

The floral addition to the Kings Hill Control Tower will be a focal point of the community’s Remembrance Sunday ceremony.

It was the idea of two companies with strong connections to the community, Liberty Property Trust and Spectrum Signs and Displays.

Liberty is the contractor behind the luxury estate, whilst Spectrum has designed key signage for Kings Hill for almost three decades.

The six foot poppy was purchased from the Royal British Legion and installed on the Control Tower, ready for the parade which will start there at 10.15am on Sunday.

The parade will travel to the Running Airman sculpture in Gibson Drive for the service at 10.45am.
