Heritage Walks in Darwen Cemetery - Darwen Men at Gallipoli

Guided Walks in the Cemetery being held in the next few months.

During August, September and October 2024 we will be re-visiting three walks that we have held in Cemetery in the past, these walks were very popular when we originally hosted them.

Our second walk in September : Darwen Men at Gallipoli

On Sunday 15th September 2024 we will be meeting at 2.00 pm at the WW1 Memorial Wall in the Western Cemetery

This walk was previously held on the 13th September 2015 during our Heritage Open Day

The walk explains some of the men from Darwen and who are buried in the Cemetery who fought in Gallipoli during WW1 who managed to survive the campaign but unfortunately died in other battles or died on their return to the UK.

We dedicated the book to the 100+ Darwen men who died during the Gallipoli campaign. 

This book can be bought for £2.50 during the walk or you can buy it through this website.

Tony Foster & Harold Heys researched and collated this booklet.
