Church History

This Cemetery or Burial Ground was founded in 1866, and we understand it is still open.

Recorded in Kelly's Directory of 1923 as "at the north end of the town, opened in 1866, at a cost of £1,600, is 3 acres in extent, and has a lych gate, used as a mortuary chapel, and a house for the sexton; it is under the control of a joint committee of fourteen, the constituent parish councils returning members in the following proportions, viz: Alkington 2, Berkeley 2, Hamfallow 3, Ham and Stone 2, and Hinton 4, and the Breadstone parish meeting 1".

Denomination
