Victorian Historic Cemeteries

Family reuse of graves and cremation memorials

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 and continued use of family graves is often encouraged. 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. Above ground burial in the form of a mausoleum may also be offered. The following table provides an incomplete list. The information may not be accurate and should not be relied upon.
