Description

Le Bons Cemetery opened in 1862. It is generally flat with a moist treed section near the western end. The rural location of the cemetery is significant, from all sides of the cemetery there are rural vistas which helps provide a feeling of openness. A large area of the cemetery is fenced off and either grazed or open for public access to the lagoon. The cemetery has a formal layout with distinctive family areas. The cemetery has a variety of graves/ headstones from older Victorian style to more recent upright memorial headstones. The cemetery has strong community associations and is maintained by the local community
