This icon denotes a large cemetery.  

These cemeteries have a large number of war graves. Some are standalone CWGC cemeteries, such as Lyness Royal Naval Cemetery, but all have war graves organised in large plots or sections, like you will find at Cambridge City Cemetery. Large cemeteries have CWGC features including the Cross of Sacrifice and Stone of Remembrance.

There are only a small number of these sites in Great Britain.

This icon denotes a medium cemetery.  

These cemeteries and churchyards have war graves organised into a plot or section such as at Sutton Veny (St.John) Churchyard. These plots can often be found within larger civilian cemeteries like Liverpool (Anfield) Cemetery. You will find a Cross of Sacrifice in these cemeteries.

War grave plots and sections are common in town and city cemeteries across Great Britain. 

This icon denotes a small cemetery or churchyard.

These cemeteries or churchyards will contain only a small number of war graves, sometimes one or two, and they will be scattered throughout the cemetery. You will find scattered war graves in almost every town and village across Great Britain.

This icon denotes the CWGC Runnymede Memorial.

Across Great Britain the CWGC commemorates over 130,000 service personnel who have no known grave. You can find their names on eleven memorials to the missing.

Each memorial has its own unique icon.
