War graves and memorial in Croydon Cemetery
Croydon Cemetery was opened in 1876. It contains 195 scattered war graves of the First World War, most of them of local men. Some of the 150 Second World War burials form a small war graves plot in the Thornton Heath Extension. This is seen here together with the war memorial. As is so common elsewhere, they are beautifully kept in the manner of the war cemeteries in France and Belgium. Close by is the Archbishop Lanfranc School memorial to the Stavanger Air Crash of 1961 - see http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3033847
