We reported on this blog that Bereavement Services were hoping to create a WW1 Memorial Garden on the site of what was formerly known as ‘Oak Tree Island’. As you can see from our photograph, the actual Memorial is now in place. We watch with interest as the area develops.

It would be lovely if this could be completed by the time we hold the Heritage Open Event on September 13th- but time is possibly against us.

This is a beautiful Memorial and the creation of this area will complement the rest of this peaceful cemetery.
