The cemetery on Boundary Road was laid out by the Birkenhead Improvement Commissioners in 1864. The two chapels (Anglican and Nonconformist) sharing a tall central spire (now sadly truncated) were designed by Lucy & Littler, closed in 1975 and are now in a sorry state. For a glimpse of the spire in its former glory see Alan Murray-Rust's photograph Image
