Introduction
Covering approximately 11.4 hectares, the site was intended to be 'a recreation park, to be used for walking, riding and driving' as well as a cemetery, and at least a third of the land was taken up with the lodges, chapel, walks & drives. Though the chapel has been demolished and the land set aside for more burials, the original landscaping survives.
