Future events

We aim to provide some events for the special year 2012. Ideas include a children's trail.

Currently we are trying to gain information and any photos from local people who knew the cemetery in the aftermath of World War 11 onwards. If you have information or would like to help please contact us on info@margravinecemetery.org.uk
