Join us for a free tour of Barry (Merthyr Dyfan) Burial Ground.
Our tours are free to the public, but if you would like to support us then please consider donating to our charity The Commonwealth War Graves Foundation (CWGF).

MEETING POINT is inside the main gate by the Royal British Legion Memorial.
Merthyr Dyfan has over one hundred and ten casualties from both World Wars. Both Summer tours will be completely different from War Graves Week and from each other. We will visit private memorials and Commonwealth War Graves headstones of casualties from all three of the armed services and the Merchant Navy from both World Wars. There are casualties from a couple of European Countries and from Canada.
Plenty of on-street parking on Cemetery Approach and surrounding streets; on-site facilities including toilets with disability access; good pathways but ground is undulating in places.
Please dress for the weather and wear suitable footwear.
