As the people of Kenilworth were forced to mark Remembrance Sunday this year in a different fashion to normal, residents have found their own ways to mark the day.

Some members of the community have been painting poppies and sending them to Kenilworth Fire Station.

Some residents stood on their doorsteps at 11am this morning to observe a two-minute silence to remember the fallen.

Kenilworth's Mayor Cllr Richard Dickson, and members of the Kenilworth branch of the Royal British Legion George Illingworth and Andy Jones laid wreaths at the war memorial in Abbey Park.

A further tribute came from Neil and Gayle Bradley, the couple affectionately named 'Kenilworth's Most Famous Couple.'

On their walk through Abbey Fields this morning, they stopped at the memorial to pay tribute to the fallen by reading 'The Soldier' by Rupert Brooke.

Perhaps one of the best known poems written about the First World War, it is particularly poignant for the people of Kenilworth given the Warwickshire connections of Brooke.

He was born in Rugby, in 1887, and went on to attend Rugby School and then to study at Cambridge, before enlisting in the British Army in August 1914.

His poem The Soldier was first published in the Times Literary Supplement in 1915, and now some 105 years later, it is still a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by countless service people across the last century.
