A minute's silence was observed at 11am today as the nation paid tribute to the victims of Monday night's bombing.

22 people are known to have died and 119 were injured in the atrocity at the Manchester Arena at the end of a concert by Ariana Grande.

The youngest victim, Saffie Roussos, was just eight.

Some people are still unaccounted for.

The silence was an opportunity to remember the victims and express sympathy for their grieving families and also to demonstrate the nation's solidarity in the face of terrorism.

The Dean of Rochester Cathedral, Dr Philip Hesketh, kept the minute's silence at the War memorial outside the Cathedral on Rochester High Street.

A prayer station has also been set up inside the Cathedral.

Meanwhile, candles have been lit at Canterbury Cathedral to honour the victims.
