Foster Hill Road Cemetery, burial records and guided tree walk
The Gatehouse, Foster Hill Road, Bedford, Bedfordshire, MK41 7TD
Foster Hill Road Cemetery is somewhere that people visit graves, soak in the atmosphere of a peaceful place to wander, look at the intricate headstone carvings and study the architecture of the buildings. They are largely Victorian, and are exactly what you expect buildings to look like in a cemetery. Typically Gothic in design, they evoke feelings of a different time, stark and slightly mysterious. Two architects in particular made their marks, and our website has full articles about them. If walls could talk, then the Gatehouse building in particular would have interesting tales to tell.
