Macclesfield Cemetery is the final resting place of 85 servicemen and women who died in the First and Second World Wars. Amongst the graves are two sisters who tragically died within months of each other. There is also an Australian buried thousands of miles from home and very unusually, a Belgian soldier from the Great War.
Parking available on-site and nearby; no on-site facilities; mostly level ground.
Please dress for the weather and wear suitable footwear.
