This archive collects 20 photographs from Roman Firsov's long-running field documentation of Soviet military burials in the United Kingdom. The images cover ten cemeteries — from Aldershot in the south to Harrogate in the north — and the Great Ouseburn memorial (North Yorkshire) marking the 1942 air crash site.
For detailed accounts of each burial and the soldiers buried there, see the Guide to Soviet Military Graves in the United Kingdom.
