Communities across south Norfolk and north Suffolk will come to a standstill tomorrow and Sunday to remember Britain's war dead.

A host of Armistice Day and Remembrance Sunday services is planned to commemorate the lives of military personnel who died in conflict.

The relatives of those commemorated on the Great Moulton War Memorial are invited to a rededication and Remembrance Service on Sunday at 10.55am at St Michael's Church in the village.

The memorial has recently been renovated by H L Perfitt Stonemasons of Diss, who originally constructed the memorial in 1919. The project has been funded by Great Moulton Parish Council, with additional donations from St Michael's Church, Friends of St Michael's and an anonymous donor.

There will be a small display of information about the men commemorated on the memorial, and the parish council would like to hear from any one who thinks they may be related to the following:

1914-18 – James Beckett, (Frederick) Russell Chute, Edward Coleman, Charles Hinchliffe, Henry Crisp, Bertie Pymer, James Sparrow, Albert Youngman; 1939-45 – Reginald Elvin, Robert Royal, Ronald Woolterton.
