Spalding Victorian Cemetery & Mausoleum
Spalding Cemetery, Pinchbeck Road, Spalding, Lincolnshire, PE11 1QL
The “Friends of Spalding Cemetery” group was set up with the aim of promoting and preserving the public Cemetery of Spalding which opened in 1854 when burials ceased to be allowed in all churchyards, with the exception of the Quakers Meeting Houses.
Over 25,000 persons are buried here, including thirty-five WWI and WWII military persons, many in Commonwealth War graves.
The Friends of Spalding Cemetery have made themselves responsible for 12,000 graves pre-1930, two chapels, and the Johnson Mausoleum. In the course of more than a century and a half, a wide variety of flora, fauna and wildlife have begun to call the 27 acres of the Cemetery site their home.
