Commonwealth War Graves Arnos Vale Cemetery

Bristol (Arnos Vale) Cemetery contains burials of both wars. Most of the 356 First World War burials were of men who died at the local hospitals. There are 149 burials from the Second World War, some forming a small plot in an area in the upper part of the cemetery set aside for burials from the Naval Hospital at Barrow Gurney; the rest are scattered. Those whose graves are not marked by headstones are named on a Screen Wall Memorial.

Bristol (Arnos Vale) Crematorium stands within the cemetery. A memorial in front of the crematorium commemorates 68 servicemen and women of the Second World War whose remains were cremated there.
