"It’s a good perfect place to honour and pay tribute the heroes from WW1.. a quit place in the middle of the farm.. Also for the people who wants to get here, there is no way you can park a car close to Chattri, but theres a walk path from the road that you can park your car…"
"Beautiful place set in the Ditching Beacons. Parked at jack and Jill windmill car park and is about 45-1hr walk to it. There is a nice little horse wagon cafe also by the car park. Once you get there there are lovley views and a bit of history on the monument. Great walk"
"This is a very pleasant walk. If on foot coming from Brighton, don't try to walk up the slip road from the A23 onto the junction with the A27. Take the small footpath on your right immediately before the roundabout and walk up Vale Avenue. Miles safer and cleaner too. Then turn to your left and cross over the bridge. Then you have to head northwards, to the small lay-by where there is usually a snack van parked. Turn right there and there is the signpost to the Chattri about 100 metres on the left hand side."
"A wonderful surprise - beautiful, elegant monument in a perfect, peaceful position. Great views and such a moving place - lots of walking routes surrounding it - very memorable and well worth visiting."
"What a way to honour all those Indian army personnel in the British army who lost their lives during WW1! This was where those who passed away were cremated according to their own faiths. There are 3 concrete slabs indicating these cremation places. A very peaceful and quiet place! When we visited the Chattri, it was so misty, it gave an unusual atmosphere to the site!"
