Bury's own verson of Banksy has struck again as residents have been quick to spot more brilliantly crafted postbox toppers.
Another impressive show of remembrance has appeared in Bury, this time in the form of postbox toppers for Remembrance Day.
One topper, situated on the post box outside Greenmount Butchers on Vernon Road, resembles a soldier, crocheted in khaki green with red poppies around the neck.
A second topper is located on the postbox outside of the Tesco Express on Brandlesholme Road and shows a soldier saluting whilst surrounded by poppies.

Both creations have received mounds of praise online as residents applaud the incredibly crafty show of respect in the build-up to Remembrance Day.
Praising the talent of the creator or creators, Facebook users have commented on Bury’s own "knitted Banksy".
One said: “They are incredible, very talented whoever made it.”
“Amazing well done and thank you to whoever has done this and paid remembrance to the people who died during their service for us all. Lest we forget.”
“Very beautiful and a lovely tribute. Well done whoever does these works of art”
“What a fantastic tribute to our fallen heroes."
Although some of the creators remain unnamed, residents have been in awe of the work.
Similar crafty crochet toppers were seen after the Queen's death, with some named and unnamed creators sharing their work online and with the Bury Times.
