IT'S bonfire night this Saturday and we take a look back at firework displays through the years.

The Evening Mail archives have revealed some sparkling photos from bonfire nights in years gone bye.

In 1990 we captured a lovely image of a six-year-old Zoe Culbert whizzing sparklers around at a fireworks display in Aldingham.

We also see the excited faces at the Stainton village green bonfire in 1988, and youngsters and families attending fireworks displays at Hillfoot, Ulverston and Holker Street in Barrow in 1997.
