Reviews about Cholera Memorial
- Stuart Cattell Review added: 2018.01.03★ ★ ★ ★ ☆The Cholera Burial Ground is a well maintained garden at the end of Doctors Piece in Willenhall.
It was eventually enclosed by public subscription but it was not finally consecrated until July 18th 1867 when, following the consecration of the re-built church, the Lord Bishop of Lichfield and assembled clergy went in processions to the Cholera ground where he consecrated it before a large assembly of townspeople.
On the wall of the burial ground is a commemorative plaque which explains the "season of deep and general affliction and alarm".
The original plaque (still there) is in a very poor condition so Willenhall History Society replaced the plaque with a new headstone.
