MEETING POINT is at the CWGC Commonwealth Cemetery. This is the cemetery with the white Cross of Sacrifice which is adjacent to, and can be seen from Camp Road.
The Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC) looks after the graves and memorials of around 1.7 million Commonwealth causalities from the two World Wars, across the Globe.
Cannock Chase played a vital role in the First World War. Come and discover the history through those that CWGC commemorates there.
In the neighbouring site are the graves of almost 5,000 German and Austrian casualties from both World Wars. Discover the stories of some of them.
Taking in a range of different War Graves and Memorials you'll find out more about the CWGC's work both locally and internationally.
Free parking is available next to the Commonwealth Cemetery and addition parking is available up the lane at the German Cemetery.
There are no facilities on site.
