Once through these gates, a short walk along the newly laid path brings the visitor to the very pretty little “Chapel” originally built in 1893 and renovated by Roade Parish Council in 1989.

Along side the chapel another gate leads through to a rather beautiful, quiet place where bereaved families can sit and quietly mourn their loved ones. Roade cemetery is home to some very interesting and beautiful Graves Stones just a few of which are pictured here.

There are of course the traditional Stones and then there are the more unusual ones, such as the “Little Car” or the “Guitarist”, there’s the “Sun Dial” and the various “Angels” and “Crosses”, all of which go to make our Cemetery not only a peaceful place in which to “rest” but of great interest to those just visiting.
