Overview

The cemetery was created in 1850, a comparatively early date for cemeteries of this type. Two chapels were built in 1856 but were demolished in 1956 and 1972. The cemetery was designed to look like a public park and contains a number of impressive monuments. It is significant as a relatively early example of urban cemetery design.
