Cemeteries information for Beeston and places above it in the hierarchy
- Tony BURTON tells us: "There was a graveyard around Beeston Parish Church which we used to walk through on our way to school - and also a Cemetery on the north side of Beeston off Wollaton Road."
- John MELLORS advises: "By an order in council dated 1888 all burials in Beeston Parish Church churchyard except in such wholly walled graves now existing in the said churchyard every coffin buried therein must be separately enclosed by stonework or brickwork properly cemented. The entries following unless otherwise specified all relate to burials in the consecrated portion of Beeston Parish Cemetery conducted by the parochial clergy. A portion of the cemetery was consecrated by the Lord Bishop of Southwell on 20 Mar 1888."
- Peter SHONE has a photograph of the Cemetery and burial chapel on Geo-graph, taken in September, 2005.
