We have 3 Images Above Photograph(s) Copyright of John Williams Quaker Burial Ground, Painswick Quaker Burial Ground, off Beech Lane (marked 'Dell Farm'), Painswick, Gloucestershire. Church History This Cemetery or Burial Ground was founded in 1658, though it is now closed, but we don't yet know when. This burial ground adjacent to Dell Farm was given to the Quakers by Thomas Lovejoy. The site is now Grade II Listed - see the British Listed Buildings website for details. The plot is surrounded by a drystone wall of limestone, and measures about 17 x 10 metres. As can be seen from our first photograph, there is a sign indicating it is the "Quaker Burial Ground 1658". "A very valuable survival, well away from normal access in the area". See also the Friends Meeting House in Painswick, in this database. Denomination Now or formerly a Cemetery (Quaker). In most cases this will be a record of its original consecration. Maps This Cemetery was located at OS grid reference SO8754009431. You can see this on various mapping systems.

Search Tips:

You can specify either a Place, or OS Grid Reference to search for. When you specify a Place, only entries for that place will be returned, with Places of Worship listed in alphabetical order. If you specify a Grid Reference, Places of Worship in the immediate vicinity will be listed, in order of distance from the Grid Reference supplied. The default is to list 10, but you can specify How Many you want to see, up to a maximum of 100.

You can further refine your search by supplying other search terms.

• You can specify entries with ('Yes') or without ('No') photographs.
• You can specify a church or chapel's Dedication, to restrict entries to those containing the term you supply as a dedication. So for instance, 'John' would return 'St John', 'St Mary and St John', 'St John the Divine' &c.
• You can specify a Street address, and likewise 'George' will return George Place, St George's Street, George and Dragon, &c.
• You can restrict the search to classes of Denomination. The exact denomination is always shown in the results, although the search is for broad types. Thus you can search for 'Methodist', but not 'Wesleyan Methodist' or 'Primitive Methodist'. 'Multi-denominational' includes Ecumenical Partnerships, and 'Miscellaneous' means anything not covered by other broad classes.
