History information
Cliveden War Cemetery is in the grounds of Cliveden House, a National Trust property, near the river Thames.
From December 1914 to September 1917, the hospital at nearby Taplow was the Duchess of Connaught Canadian Red Cross Hospital, and then until September 1919, No. 15 Canadian General Hospital. Most of the 40 First World War burials, the majority of them Canadian, are associated with the hospital.
The cemetery also contains two Second World War graves and two American War Graves from the First World War.
