Tower of London poppies on show in at Northumberland museum

Thousands of ceramic poppies used in the Tower of London installation are going on display at the Woodhorn Museum, in Northumberland.

The Weeping Window section of last year's display goes on view from Saturday at the museum, near Ashington.

Woodhorn director Keith Merrin says he believes people cannot help but be swept up by the visual representation shown by the poppies of the sacrifice made in World War One.
