Caerphilly town held its Remembrance service as hundreds lined the streets

Crowds of people attended Remembrance Day services across Caerphilly County Borough over the weekend.

Church services were held up and down Caerphilly, as crowds made their way to their local war memorial to lay wreathes and hold a two-minute silence.

Veterans and members of the Armed Forces were joined by residents, Members of Parliament, Senedd Members, and councillors to pay their respects.

Representatives from the police and fire service were also present to lay wreathes.
