Here is the guy you wanted from Brookwood Military Cemetery.

Brookwood Cemetery couldn't do. What a shamble. Much too big. Maps crap and no one around to ask.

Cheers - Robert.

I was down there last week but didnt take any pics( long story) having had a long conversation with someone who is connected to the main cemetery.
No photographs etc allowed in the main cemetery without a permit which is highly unlikely to be granted I would think.

Regards

Andy

 

Robert, Thank you very much.

Andy, I too have been told by a Lady that works for Perth War Cemetery the same thing. For that reason I go to cemeteries when no-one is working. Sundays is best.

Cheers

I noticed a sign at the entrance to the Muslim part, but not the other entrance where there was the Cemetery Office. What a mess the entrance area is. The car park was a quagmire and a sign outside showing logs for sale. Great Image.

Cheers - Robert

Thanks for pointing that out about taking pics. I won't bother trying there.
