Jabez Dobson and Henry Stachan family graves in Ilkley Cemetery

About

This walk will be lead by local historian Denise Shillitoe, who will explore the histories of some of the people buried or commemorated in the Cemetery whose lives were connected with Ilkley's hydos - as owners, patients, visitors or workers.

The walk is expected to last approximately 60 - 75 minutes.

Please note that someof the paths are rough or uneven so care is needed when moving around the Cemetery.
