Old Cemetery, Uttoxeter New Road, Derby

This is the Old Cemetery, Uttoxeter New Road, Derby (Grade II listed). It would have been great to have done this 360 at night for added atmosphere but even during a bright sunny day you are aware that this is a very old cemetery, rumoured to be haunted by several ghosts!

The Old or 'General Cemetery' was opened in March 1843, It is situated on the south side of Uttoxeter New Road 1.5km west-south-west of Derby city centre.

This cemetery is the second oldest cemetery in England, the oldest being Bunhill Fields in London.

The Mortuary Chapel was demolished in the late 1940's because the cemetery was full and the chapel became redundant. The area where the chapel stood is now used for car parking for visitors to the cemetery. There are three thousand graves in this four and a half acre site but 6000-8000 burials.
