NSW Historic Cemeteries

Burial may continue, no new graves, cremation an option

While no new gravespace is currently available at the cemeteries listed below, existing rights of burial which have previously been purchased continue to be honoured. In some cases the cemetery has been officially closed for burial. In many historic cemeteries, burial of cremated remains provides an ongoing source of revenue for the cemetery's maintenance.
