The C19th cemetery includes this group of War graves from WW2. They are mainly Allied airmen, including some Poles and Canadians, but the graves nearest the camera, to judge by the names appear, to be German. United in death. There are also a number of graves from WW1, presumably of those who died of wounds after being re-patriated to 'Blighty', but these are scattered across the cemetery rather than grouped together
