Join us at St John the Baptist Church in Whittington - step inside and explore the hidden history of Whittington’s Garden of Remembrance.
This village-made exhibition shares the stories of the Garden from creation of the cemetery during the burial reforms of the 1850's, through its transition to a Garden of Remembrance in the 1960's, up to today.
Through old maps, local research, interviews, and community stories, you’ll see how the space has evolved and how it continues to be cared for today.
Whether you love local history, enjoy exploring family roots, or simply want a quiet moment in a beautiful church, you are warmly invited.
Perfect for:
✨ Local history enthusiasts
✨ Families
✨ Long-time residents
✨ Newcomers wanting to learn more about the village
✨ Anyone who loves old stories and gentle exhibitions
Drop in any time during opening hours.
We’d love to see you there.
