In the quaint city of Bath, amidst the hustle and bustle of daily life, lies a place of quiet reflection and musical history – the Eddie Cochran Memorial at St Martins Hospital.
Eddie Cochran was born on 3rd October, 1938, in Albert Lea, Minnesota. He was a rising start in the late 1950’s rock ‘n’ roll scene. With his infectious energy, soulful voice, and guitar skills, Cochran captured the hearts and audiences worldwide. Hits like “Summertime Blues” and “C’mon Everybody” cemented his place in music history, earning him a devoted following and inspiring countless artists in the decades to come.
Tragically, Cochran’s meteoric rise came to an abrupt end on 17th April, 1960, when he was involved in a fatal car accident while on tour in the UK. The accident occurred in Chippenham and he was rushed for medical treatment at St Martins Hospital, despite the efforts of doctors and medical staff, Cochran succumbed to his injuries at the young age of 21, leaving behind a legacy that would endure long after his passing.
In the years following Cochran’s death, fans from around the world have made pilgrimages to the crash site and St Martins Hospital to pay their respects. It was in recognition of this enduring outpouring of love and admiration that the Eddie Cochran Memorial was established on the hospital grounds.
Nestled in the tranquil surroundings of the hospital grounds, the memorial offers visitors a serene space for contemplation and remembrance. A simple plaque bearing Cochran’s name and a brief inscription stands as testament to his life and music, while nearby trees and greenery provide a peaceful backdrop for reflection.
So, the next time you find yourself in Bath, take a moment to visit the Eddie Cochran Memorial at St Martins Hospital. Pay your respects, soak in the tranquillity of the surroundings and remember the life and music of a true rock ‘n’ roll legend whose legacy continues to inspire us all.

As independent Funeral Directors, we believe in honouring traditions and celebrating the rich tapestry of cultures that make our world so vibrant. Today, we commemorate St. George’s Day, a day steeped in history and symbolism.
St. George, the patron saint of England, is celebrated for his legendary bravery and unwavering faith. His iconic image slaying the dragon serves as a powerful metaphor for courage in the face of adversity. On this day, we pay tribute to the spirit of resilience and gallantry that St. George represents.
But St. George’s Day is more than just a celebration of England’s patron saint. It’s time to come together as a community, to embrace our shared heritage and to reflect on the values that unite us It’s a reminder of the importance of courage, honour and selflessness in our lives.
So, whether you’re donning a red rose or raising a flag, let’s celebrate St. George’s Day with pride and reverence. Let’s honour the spirit of St. George by embodying his virtues and striving to make our world a better place.
Happy St George’s Day to all!
