In just over a week, dozens of beacons will be lit across Kent to mark 100 years since the end of the First World War.

Hundreds of other councils and communities throughout the UK will be joining the county in lighting beacons at 7pm on Rememberance Day. 

The village of Newington near Sittingbourne will be one of them where trenches were built to stop a German invasion.

Sue Flipping is from the Newington History Group.
