The sixth of the Garden Cemeteries to open.
Opened 1840, in the London Borough of Southwark.
Built on a hill, with views over London, it was designed by architect James Bunstone Bunning, who had replaced Stephen Geary.
In 1976 it was purchased after it was allowed to fall into neglect by its owners United Cemeteries Limited, who were looking to build on some of the land.
It is still in operation.
