Staffordshire has observed two minutes of silence to commemorate those who have died in military conflicts.

An Armistice Day service was held on Wednesday at the Royal British Legion National Remembrance Gardens, previously known as the National Memorial Arboretum, in Alrewas.

The Duke and Duchess of Gloucester were present at the service, observing the two-minute silence at 11:00 GMT and laying a wreath of poppies.

The pair were then taken around the memorial, before speaking with members of the public who attended the service.

Last year, the Princess of Wales had attended the memorial in Alrewas and joined veterans in honouring fallen soldiers, before laying a wreath in memory of those who paid the ultimate sacrifice.
