Our grounds are very big, around 150-acres, that's about 85 football pitches! In them you’ll find over 400 memorials of all shapes and sizes. The memorials you'll see are incredibly special, and their designs are rich in symbolism, reflecting the stories of the groups they represent.
There are a lots of flat wide paths to use, but don’t be afraid to head onto the grass to look at memorials you spot. Some of our memorials are tucked away in gardens and in woodland glades so you’ll need to explore to find them.
You are welcome to take a closer look at the memorials you find. Some of the smallest details and textures help to tell the stories of the memorials and who they remember. Whilst we encourage you to touch our memorials as you explore, please do be respectful of the stories and people they represent, and do not climb on any of the sculptures.
You’ll find more information about just some of the memorials on our memorials pages. Our team are also happy to help you, and can answer any questions you might have.
We hope you leave our grounds feeling inspired by the stories you hear, and enjoy your visit to the Royal British Legion National Remembrance Gardens.

Pick up a free self-led trail sheet on arrival at the Welcome Desk, and head out into our grounds to explore the fully accessible one-mile route. Along the way you'll be able to spot fun character carvings, including Stick Man himself!
The trail is available every day, during our regular opening hours.
