Completion of Lamberts Walk
October 2014
Members and Trustees of Wisbech Society gathered to toast the official opening of Lambert’s Walk. The culmination of two years of negotiations, hard work and collaborations with local people and businesses, the new walkway is an achievement of which the Society is very proud.
We have been, and will continue to, work very closely with the Friends of Wisbech General Cemetery, and it seemed only appropriate that Sue Beel of the Friends performed the honours of cutting the ribbon.
We hope that the much-improved vista of the Chapel of Rest that Lambert’s Walk offers, will help to enable the cemetery to enjoy the recognition that its wonderful architecture and rich history deserves.
The Walk was named after Basil Lambert, the last person to be buried in Wisbech General Cemetery and a benefactor for both the town and the Society.
