War memorials
Stranton Cemetery, which covers over 30 acres, contains war graves from both world wars. The 1914-1918 burials are scattered in various parts of the cemetery. After the 1914-1918 war, a Cross of Sacrifice was erected inside the main entrance to the cemetery. During the early months of the 1939-1945 war, a piece of ground was set aside by the local authorities, which became the War Graves Plot. The site is immediately behind the Cross of Sacrifice, on the eastern side of the cemetery near the entrance.
There are 43 Commonwealth casualties of the 1914-1918 war and 132 of the 1939-1945 war buried in this site. There are also war graves scattered across both West View Cemetery and North Cemetery.
