Mitcham Road Cemetery

The cemetery has a memorial to 34 boys and 2 masters from The Archbishop Lanfranc School, who were killed in an aircraft crash near Stavanger Airport, Sola, in 1961.

[5] A Portland stone memorial, erected by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission, which faces the Garden of Rest at Croydon Crematorium, commemorates 59 Commonwealth service personnel of the Second World War who were cremated there.

In 2015 a further memorial, next door to the war graves plot, was erected to commemorate 18 discharged British soldiers of the First World War who died at the Cane Hill Hospital and were originally buried there until its site was redeveloped, following which their remains were exhumed and cremated here,[6] their ashes scattered in 'Location 1000' in the grounds.

[6] The cemetery is located on the west edge of the Croydon borough and is not well connected by public transport, although inside the cemetery there is an extensive network of roads suitable for cars.

Therapia Lane tram stop is a five-minute walk away from the cemetery and is on Tramlink which serves Wimbledon, Croydon and New Addington.
