The "courage and bravery" of those who fought in one of the bloodiest battles of World War One has been remembered, 100 years after it began.

Prince Charles, Prince William and Prime Minister Theresa May were among those who paid tribute to those who died in the Battle of Passchendaele in Belgium.

Some 4,000 relatives attended the ceremony at Tyne Cot cemetery, Ypres.

In the three months of fighting, half a million Allied and German soldiers were killed, wounded or went missing.

Prince Charles addressed the service, saying: "We remember it not only for the rain that fell, the mud that weighed down the living and swallowed the dead, but also for the courage and bravery of the men who fought here."

The conflict - officially known as the Third Battle of Ypres - was fought from 31 July 1917 until November that year.

Edgar Mobbs was an England and Northampton Saints rugby captain and war hero.

He died aged 35 in the Battle of Passchendaele while charging a German machine gun on 31 July 1917.

BBC Radio Northampton tell his story...

At 03:50 on 31 July 1917, the Third Battle of Ypres, also known as Passchendaele, began when 2,000 Allied guns opened fire on German lines.

By the end of the three-month long campaign, more than 500,000 men from both sides are thought to have been injured or killed.

One hundred years on, Passchendaele is still remembered through the war poet Siegfried Sassoon.

‘Memorial Tablet’ by Siegfried Sassoon is read by David Suchet.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge joined Belgium's King Philippe and Queen Mathilde to mark the centenary of the Battle of Passchendaele.

They gathered at the Menin Gate in Ypres for a service which included the Last Post.

Before World War One, Edgar Mobbs was one of the Northampton's most recognisable figures, as captain of Northampton Saints RUFC from 1907 to 1913. He also captained England.

During WW1, Mobbs rose through the ranks to command the 7th Northamptonshire Regiment (known as “The Mobbs Own”).

He was wounded three times, was mentioned in dispatches twice and received the distinguished service order (DSO) in January 1917.

On 31 July 1917 he was killed on the first day of the Battle of Passchendaele while leading a charge on a machine gun position.
