As stories go, the Arboretum’s is pretty inspiring! Built on land that had been used for gravel extraction, everything that you see in our grounds has been created over the past twenty years thanks to the support of thousands of individuals and organisations.We are the UK’s year-round place to remember, and we exist to provide a space where everyone can celebrate lives lived and commemorate lives lost.
Our grounds are expansive, covering around 150-acres, and are made up of woodlands and gardens. Placed within the grounds are more than 400 memorials, each with an amazing story to tell. The designs of many of the memorials feature symbolism that can be used to help understand the stories of those remembered.
Although lots of the memorials at the Arboretum are connected to military organisations there are also memorials in our grounds for the emergency services and for other charitable organisations who provide invaluable service to our country. Our site also features nearly 25,000 trees, many of which remember individuals or organisations, with the species of a tree often selected for symbolic purposes. You can find a full list of our memorials on the List of Memorials page.
