There are 3 War Graves in the churchyard of Ss Peter &
Felix's, Kirby Ravensworth. One of these graves is that of Private Arthur
Park of the Yorkshire Regiment.
Note : The Ordnance Survey map shows the village to be "Kirby Hill",
but the name "Kirby Ravensworth" is used here. The Commonwealth
War Graves Commission uses the name "Kirkby Ravensworth", but
this would appear to be an inaccuracy.
