This is the graveyard for Americans who were killed in the battles of World War II.
The land was given to the USA by Cambridge University - so technically this is American soil in England.
Our guide Janet Jaecock, instructed us about the facts of war during the 1940's.
A cross section shows the graves of our service men and women from WWII.
A Day at Ely Cathedral (tours and an evening worship service)
Students listened to Janet Jaecock as she told us about the cathedral's history.
Can you see the man behind the leaves? This is known as the "Green Man". He is found in most Medieval Cathedrals. He is a pagan god. The carvers seemed to want to hedge their bets - if God didn't help them , maybe the "green man" would.
