Aylmerton War Memorial in Norfolk is one of 10 to be given listed status

Ten World War One memorials have been given Grade II listed status to commemorate Armistice Day.

The memorials, in Hertfordshire, Norfolk and Suffolk, have been listed after advice from Historic England.

Historic England said it was an important reminder of local people who had sacrificed their lives.

Tony Calladine, regional director for Historic England in the East of England, encouraged people to take part in a project called Enriching the List.

Anyone can add new information and photographs of those whose names are listed on the memorials, he said.

"It ensures that the sacrifices of those individuals and families are never forgotten," he added.
