Beyond the Deepening Shadow

Four years ago we saw the display of hundreds of thousands of hand-made ceramic poppies filling the moat of the Tower of London, marking 100 years since the start of the First World War.

This evening we returned to the Tower, this time to see the display of 10,000 torches in the moat marking 100 years since the end of the war.  This display, which is only on this week and is lit each evening from 5pm and burns for around 4 hours, proved extremely popular - with huge crowds converging on the Tower.

The extra shows a more general view of the installation.
