National Memorial Arboretum
The National Memorial Arboretum is a national site of remembrance at Alrewas, near Lichfield, Staffordshire, England, which honours the fallen, recognises service and sacrifice and fosters pride in our country. It is a spiritually uplifting place and is emerging as a world-renowned centre for remembrance
The Arboretum is situated just south of Alrewas on approximately 150 acres of old gravel workings, 5 miles north of Lichfield, Staffordshire. It is adjacent to the confluence of the River Tame with the River Trent, and directly neighbouring Croxall Lakes. The Arboretum contains over 50,000 trees, with more being added each year. There are nearly 300 memorials for the armed forces, civilian organisations and voluntary bodies who have played a part in serving the country.
This is one of the memorials that I saw when I visited the gardens.
