Greendale Cemetery

Current location in the site

Please select a Cemetery:  

The cemetery was first developed in 1877, with the first burial taking place the following year. Early minutes of the Greendale Cemetery Board are missing, but it appears that the following areas were originally allocated: Methodist, Baptist, Church of England (Anglican), Catholic and Presbyterian.

There is no record of the Catholic portion being used, and this was no doubt due to the opening of a Catholic cemetery in Darfield. It was subsequently redesignated as an interdenominational area.

The cemetery came under the control of the Malvern County Council in 1943. View a plan of the cemetery and a map of the cemetery's location.
