A short, accessible walk designed for those who prefer a gentler pace. This walk offers a relaxed way to explore the cemetery’s rich heritage. Along the way, we share a selection of stories, some well known, others quietly remarkable, revealing the lives and histories held within this peaceful landscape.
The guided walk lasts approximately 50 minutes and follows a largely flat, step-free route. There are regular opportunities to pause, sit and rest, allowing you to take in both the stories and the surroundings at your own pace.
We also allow time before and after the walk to arrive, settle, and linger.
