Commonwealth War Graves Causewayhead Cemetery

During the early months of the 1939-1945 War a section in Causewayhead Cemetery in Silloth was set aside for the burial of service personnel. This is now the War Graves Plot. Most of the airmen buried here were serving at the Royal Air Force Station at Silloth, where there is a large aerodrome. Many of the bodies were recovered from the sea and two could not be identified. The cemetery contains 61 Commonwealth war graves from the Second World War.
