MEETING POINT is at the chapel at the Eppleworth Road entrance.
Cottingham cemetery, set between Eppleworth Road and Mill Lane, is the resting place of 17 servicemen, 4 casualties of the WW1 and 13 from WW2. We will explore the lives of some of these men and discover their links to Cottingham, with stories of drunken exploits, accidents and Turkish Baths! Listen to the stories of their heroic deeds and committed service to King and Country, leading to the ultimate sacrifice.
Limited parking available on site and nearby; on-site facilities and toilets; uneven ground.
Please dress for the weather and wear suitable footwear.
