The Tower of London created a poppy display called 'The Tower Remembers' a few months ago which will be removed later this year. It is on display within the Tower walls. Tens of thousands of the original ceramic poppies which flooded the moat in 2014 have been used. This time they have been arranged as a 'wound' at the heart of the Tower from which they form a crater and flow outwards. The Tower was bombed during the war resulting in injuries and death.
The 30,000 poppies were given to the Imperial War Museum after the display in 2014. This is the first time they have returned for this year's memorial of the 80th anniversary of the end of World War 2
