Bourton On The Water Cemetery
Bourton-on-the-Water is a village and civil parish in Gloucestershire, England that lies on a wide flat vale within the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The village had a population of 3,296 inhabitants at the 2011 census making it a rather large village as its population actually exceeds those of nearby Stow-on-the-Wold and Burford, both of which are considered small market towns.Plan your visit to Bourton On The Water Cemetery and a wealth of other attractions, well-known and undiscovered, using our Bourton-on-the-Water trip planner.
