MEETING POINT at the War Memorial at the centre of the cemetery .

Belgrave cemetery is abundant with trees, notably monkey puzzle. All to be explained. We have here a noble hero (non war grave) also a scout leader who is praised by his brother scouts. Trainees and a varied assortment of very brave people who answered the call to duty.

Please note that you can only access this cemetery by road from Red Hill Way from the KFC roundabout. The sharp left turn into the cemetery is off the slip road to the A6 roundabout .(just after the Great Central railway turn)

Parking available by memorial, on-site toilets.

Please dress for the weather and wear suitable footwear.

Organised by

Across Britain there are war graves and memorials at over 12,000 locations. From towering and dramatic memorials which bear the names of tens of thousands of missing personnel, to small and intimate local churchyards where perhaps only one service person is commemorated, there is so much to discover.
