MEETING POINT inside cemetery gates.
With plenty of opportunity for questions and discussion, you will learn about the work of the Commonwealth War Graves Commission and hear the remarkable stories of some of those who died in the two world wars and are buried in the cemetery.
The road up to the cemetery runs at an angle off North Street and and there is sufficient space for parking immediately outside the cemetery gates. Although there are steps up to the War Memorial and parts of the cemetery are on hilly or uneven ground, the walking route is relatively short. There are no facilities or toilets.
Please dress appropriately 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).
