Silence falls for Armistice at Senedd, Brecon and Llandaff

Thousands of people have paid tribute to those who have died in well known and lesser known acts of heroism and sacrifice during conflict.

Armistice Day commemorations were marked with a two minute silence at 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month.

Military bases, town halls and schools were among those who took part.

Services were held in towns and cities around Wales remembering those who have fought in battle during World War One and conflicts since.

Assembly Presiding Officer Rosemary Butler AM led the silence from the Senedd in Cardiff Bay, while there were also silences at places including barracks at Brecon and at the memorial in Llandaff village.
