Hundreds paid their respects to the nation's war dead at Remembrance Sunday services across the borough.

The service at St Mary's Church in Battersea Church Road was attended by around 270 people, including the mayor of Wandsworth and servicemen.

Major Rupert Hill, of the Territorial Army's London Regiment thanked people from the borough for their support at a service conducted by Reverend Canon Simon Butler.

A small parade led by the Air Training Corps took place afterwards in Battersea Square, where the mayor, Lieutenant-Colonel Ewan Cameron and Maj Hill took the salute.

In Putney around 500 people attended a service held at St Mary's Church, Putney Bridge, which was also attended by transport secretary Justine Greening MP and the deputy mayor.

The parade afterwards was led by the Black Watch Royal Highland Regiment.

Reverend Ailsa Newby who took the service said: "It was a lovely service, we had a Marine play the last post.

"Wreaths were laid from the Marines to members of the Beavers, there was a great array of different people paying their respects to those who had given their life in war."

In Roehampton a remembrance service was held at Holy Trinity in Ponsonby Road.

Wreaths were laid at the war memorial on Roehampton Heath, at the top of Medfield Street.

The war memorial, standing on land managed by the Wimbledon and Putney Commons Conservators, honours men of Roehampton who gave their lives during the First World War.

On Armistice Day last Friday a plaque was unveiled by the mayor in Roehampton High Street to honour a 15-year-old boy soldier who died in the battle of the Somme.

Private Twyford, who lived in Roehampton, enlisted in the 13th (Service) Battalion (Wandsworth) of the East Surrey Regiment when he was just 14-years-old.
