Stamford cemetery is still an active cemetery with a wide range of old and new graves and memorials. There are 55 recorded CWGC burials scattered throughout the grounds, varying from standard CWGC graves to headstones added to family plots, and also some completely private graves. In other places there are family plots which include memorials to casualties buried elsewhere. In this way, most arrangements of remembrance are covered, even a hint to the more regimented Western Front type layouts with a group of six in two lines.
Parking on site, no on-site facilities; toilets available, level ground, wheelchair access.
The graves at this site are widespread so there will be some walking involved, mostly on pathways but also across grass.
Please dress for the weather and wear suitable footwear.
The Commonwealth War Graves Foundation (CWGF) aims to actively engage all communities with the work of the CWGC by telling the inspiring stories through education and outreach projects.
The CWGF is an independent charity registered with the Charity Commission of England and Wales (1171947) and Scotland (SC051982).
