60th Anniversary of the Glades of Remembrance

Today marks the 60th anniverary of the dedication of the Glades of Remembrance. Planned as a post-war development of the cemetery, the Glades were dedicated by the Bishop of Guildford on 11 May 1950 at a service conducted beside the lake. The lake was fully restored last year, and is now home to ducks and geese and an increasing range of other wildlife.
