Hundreds of people across Sutton paid their respects as the UK fell silent for two minutes on the 100th anniversary of the Armistice.

Services were held in parts of the borough which aimed to honour those who died during the First World War on Remembrance Sunday (November 11).

A Civic Act of Remembrance (Centenary) took place at Christ Church with St Philip, in Worcester Park, which commenced at 10am, followed by a service.

Meanwhile, people also visited the Carshalton War Memorial, near to Carshalton Ponds in Honeywood Walk, that morning to pay their respects.

Sutton councillors, the borough’s mayor Cllr Steve Cook, as well as MPs Paul Scully and Tom Brake, were all at services that day.

Many turned out for events across the borough on Remembrance Sunday while thousands of marchers passed the Cenotaph, in Whitehall, for a “people’s procession”.

The Prince of Wales led the Royal Family’s tributes to the nation’s war dead as he laid a wreath at the monument on the behalf of his mother for the second year in a row.

Prime Minister Theresa May and Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn also laid wreaths, and attended alongside Liberal Democrats leader Sir Vince Cable.

Remembrance Sunday marks 100 years since the signing of the treaty which ended the battle on the Western Front of the First World War – at the 11th hour, of the 11th day, of the 11th month in 1918.

The traditional two minutes’ silence was observed at 11am before it was marked with the chiming of Big Ben amid ongoing renovation works.
