Description

The asylum cemetery lies 300m south-west of the hospital on level ground to the south of Willoughby Road. The site was bought in 1905 and laid out in 1906 (Committee of Visitors Minute Book), it first being used for interment on 11 October of that year. The rectangular cemetery, divided from the road to the north by a wall and entered via iron entrance gates, is laid to lawn and enclosed by mature trees. A further, triangular cemetery lies close by to the north-west, to the east of Brockwater Spinney. There are two graveyards, separated by a farm track, opposite the old staff houses to the rear of the hospital. Most of the stones were moved to the side of the yard in the 1960s to allow a power mower free access, but some markers bearing numbered brass crosses still exist.
