Leysdown Cemetery - entrance

Nicely designed in a lay-by beside the B2231. The lychgate bears the date 1994 and also serves as a war memorial with names inscribed on the stones set into the brick pillars.
The white rock visible inside the graveyard is a memorial to the Scouts who lost their lives in what became known as the Leysdown Tragedy of 1912. See Link
