Hi all,

I just uploaded over 100 photos of mostly WW1 graves in this cemetery. There are around 15 or so WW2 phots, too. There is also 1 Polis Forces gravestone from WW2, and 1 Belgian from WW1. Anyone who'd like a phot file please ask.

Roop your two were not there..either I missed them or perhaps are they regular gravestones?

Thought I'd bring this thread up to the top. I just found all the pics I'd taken here a few months ago. Any requests please ask..

Robbie, are you involved with the British War Memorial Project? If not, I'm sure they would be interested in your photos.

Hi Jim

No sorry they're not amongst the pics I took. I seem to remember looking for them though when I was there. I am moving house next week back to cantebury so once I'm unpacked it will be a few mins away.

Yes, for my sins I coordinate Beds & Herts. If you contact Steve Rogers on the website he will let you know how you can help the Project.

All the best
