==War graves== The cemetery contains the graves of 473 Commonwealth service personnel of the [[First World War]]—half of whom form a war graves plot in the south-west corner, the remainder in small groups or individual graves scattered throughout the grounds—and 51 of the [[World War II|Second]] who are all dispersed. A distinct memorial list the names of Belgian soldiers who died serving in 1914-1918 and were buried here. In the First World War plot, at Section 213, a Screen Wall memorial lists casualties of both [[world war]]s whose graves could not be marked by headstones, besides five Second World War servicemen who were cremated at Kensal Green (also known as West London) Crematorium.<ref name=cwgc>{{Cite web|url=http://www.cwgc.org/find-a-cemetery/cemetery/2043517/KENSAL%20GREEN%20(ALL%20SOULS')%20CEMETERY|title=Kensal Green (All Souls') Cemetery | Cemetery Details | CWGC|website=Cwgc.org|access-date=18 April 2023}}</ref> The highest-ranking person buried here who is commemorated by the [[CWGC]] is General [[Charles W.
