Southampton Old Cemetery

Southampton Old Cemetery

Military graves in Southampton Old Cemetery. I spent many hours in this wonderful old cemetery and it was a fascinating place to explore with so many secrets if only you know where to look. The cemetery, on the Common, belongs to the Corporation. It was made in 1846 under Act of Parliament, and it now covers 27 acres. It contains 104 scattered Commonwealth war graves of the 1914-18 War, a plot of 21 1914-18 War Belgians and 15 Commonwealth war graves of the 1939-45 War.
