A member of the War Graves Commission tending to the headstones and gardening. In front of each headstone is space to plant a typical "English country garden plant". This is the case with all British War graves wherever they are situated. This lady is based in Harrogate and three people look after the War graves over a wide area. Most of the graves belong to RAF personnel and some are commemorating recent conflicts.
