POLISH
GRAVES IN BLOCKLEY CEMETERY |
|
| |
|
Blockley Station Road cemetery located on a slope with a
back drop of trees and views of the rolling Cotswold hills is more than
just a village cemetery, it is also the resting place of one
hundred and twenty two WW2 Polish displaced persons who lived
in nearby disused army camps of Springhill and Northwick Park. Most of
the graves have a name and date, but sadly there are about a dozen
unmarked graves where the crosses and plaques have been lost and
a handful were the inscription is difficult to read.

|
Thank you to Blockley Parish
Council for making available their records of burials. |

In Polish they all ask to |
| |
|
"Honour
Their Memory" |
| |
|
Cześć Jego Pamięci |

The two burials below are located in
the lower half of the cemetery |
In Poland on All Souls day relatives visit cemeteries
to lay flowers and light candles in remembrance of their loved ones.
This tradition carries on wherever there are Poles and Polish graves.
Although the Polish Camp closed in 1970 and the inhabitants moved to
towns and villages far beyond Northwick Park, yet once a year a small
group of people that grew up in the camp meet in Blockley
cemetery to pay their respects to friends and family that are
buried there. Some feel so strongly about this little corner of their
past that they have bought and reserved their place in the cemetery.
