Harefield Parish Churchyard, Australian Military Cemetery

Dedicated plot for Australian and New Zealander casualties of the First World War in the grounds of St Mary the Virgin's Church, Harefield, London Borough of Hillingdon. The plot was dedicated in 1916 for the burial of ANZAC casualties being treated at the nearby Harefield Hospital. At the time, the Imperial War Graves Commission had yet to decide on its standard design for war graves, and as a consequence the gravestones are of a "scroll" design unique among Commonwealth military cemeteries.
