Hundreds of people are expected to gather at a remote road junction in Hawkes Bay this morning.

It's Armistice Day marking the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month when hostilities ceased on the Western Front in 1918.

The locals of Rissington have created their own spectacular memorial to the locals who fought in the World Wars, as Country Life producer Sally Round discovered.
