At 11am on Sunday, November 11, Powys came to a standstill as people across the country commemorated the 100th anniversary of the end of the First World War.

Remembrance activities got underway at 10.30am in Newtown as the traditional town parade, which assembled near the Monty Club on Broad Street before proceeding to the War Memorial where the last post played and wreaths were laid following two minute's silence at 11am.

In Welshpool, bagpipers led the parade through the town to the traditional remembrance service at St Mary's Church were wreaths were laid at the foot of the war memorial to remember the fallen heroes of conflict, while in Llanfair Caereinion a centenary remembrance service was held at St Mary's Church.

This afternoon, two special remembrance train services will run on the Welshpool and Llanfair Light Railway, set to meet at Castle Caereinion where the last post will be sounded, along with a performance of the renowned poem "In Flanders Fields".

In Llanidloes, two horses joined the parade wearing specially knitted purple poppies to honour animals killed during conflict at the traditional parade set off for St Idloes Church at 10.30am, while in Montgomery a special service of remembrance was held in St Nicholas Church followed by the laying of wreaths at the town's war memorial monument. Later tonight, a torchlit beacon will be lit at the county war memorial on Town Hill, one of 1,000 beacons of light to be lit across the country.

The bells rang out in Llanfyllin following a service in the town square, where bellringers at St Myllin's have been commemorating the first world war for the past four years by tolling, on the centenaries of their deaths, for every man from Llanfyllin killed in the first world war.

In Machynlleth, wreaths were laid at the War Memorial on Hoel Pen'Rallt following a day of commemorative events organised by the Royal Welch Fusiliers Old Comrades yesterday.

Moving events and tributes to mark the centenary of the end of one of the deadliest conflicts in history took place across Powys this weekend, with murals, poppy curtains and knitted poppy displays created in memory of those who failed to return from the battlefields of Europe.
