  • During the First World War when there was a large military camp at Cannock Chase which became the base for the New Zealand Rifle Brigade. There was also a prisoner-of-war hospital with 1,000 beds, and both camp and hospital used the burial ground.
    Cannock Chase War Cemetery contains 97 Commonwealth burials of the First World War, most of them New Zealanders, and 286 German burials. There are also three burials of the Second World War. The 58 German burials in Plot 4 were all brought into the cemetery in 1963, as part of the German Government's policy to remove all graves situated in cemeteries or war graves plots not maintained by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission.

    During the war… (uncle Albert voice 😂)
    Very very nice video, of beautifully cared for cemetery. Have visited a lot of the cemetery’s in France, all also beautifully maintained. Great choice of music. You can’t walk round these places and not get a lump in your throat. 🦆
