Over 100 men from the Nenagh area who died during the Great War were remembered at a moving ceremony in the town this Saturday, at the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month - the days the guns fell silent across Europe ending the First World War.

Around 30 people gathered at the town's memorial to mark those who died in the 1914-1918 war held a brief ceremony, during which military colours were raised and lowered.

This year marked a special occasion with the unveiling of specially erected plaques at the memorial at Cudville inscribed with over 100 names of local people who died in both the Great War and the Second World War.
