Beautiful place to remember all that sacrificed their lives for their country. A true testament to their honour.

The arboretum is an absolutely wonderful place to visit , and it’s free to get in , car parking was £4 for the day . As I cannot walk for more than a few yards I was going to take my powered chair , my batteries were low , so we hired a scooter for the day , bargain at £10 for the day , the staff mainly volunteers were fantastic and sorted us out in minutes . They rely on donations and very good people as volunteers , most of whom are very knowledgeable about the site ! We did the longest walk which was a kilometre each way and the memorials were stunning all set among beautifully kept grounds and with part being alongside the river Trent . Many of the memorial’s were set among the trees , I couldn’t get to some but my partner could and some of those were heartbreaking with thousands of names not all armed forces but civilians as well , we listened to the shot at dawn memorial talk and it was heartbreaking to hear stories of young men who went to war with a false sense of heroism to break down with ptsd and not all of them were of age to fight some as young as 14 , were shot . This definitely brings into perspective the amount of folk , men women and children that died for this country and it’s freedoms .
The monument on the hill commemorating our armed services personnel lost since 1947 and updated yearly , apparently 2023 was the only year no names were up there . They also commemorate all allies , polish , Sikh , Canadian, anzacs and many others too numerous to mention but never forgotten , a haunting and beautiful place not just for families of the fallen but for anyone who wishes to pay homage to those people who died for our freedoms .
There is a lovely restaurant and coffee shop on site serving lovely meals drinks and cakes . And a gift shop selling a range of items.
There are remembrance gardens and quiet haunting spaces to ponder , at this time of year the trees are a fabulous tapestry of colours and if the sun shines all the better , a truly wonderful experience looked after by dedicated people who truly care what they are doing and are so kind , helpful and willing to chat !

Along with 15000 other ex-military bikers I attend the annual 'Ride to the Wall' event and had an amazing time. The Monuments themselves are beautiful, and the grounds were impeccably clean and tidy. A lovely testament to our fallen

A great place to visit. The house has a lot of exhibits and good information boards. The volunteer on duty was very nice - not only giving me a lot of detail about the house but also giving me a local map and a number of ideas of things to see and do on my visit to Lichfield.
