A ten tonne sand sculpture that signifies the loss of a husband, and soldier, in World War One has been completed for Remembrance Day.

Jamie Wardley, a Hebden Bridge-based sand artist from Sand in your Eye, created the sand sculpture ‘Loss is Eternal’ at the Hebden Bridge Town Hall.

It depicts the moment a wife of a soldier opens a letter that read ‘we regret to inform you your husband has been killed in action.’

“When I made her in August she was 30-years-old, this is the approximate age in which wives may have learnt about the passing of their husbands or brothers,” said Jamie.
