Bandon Hill Cemetery was opened in 1900 by the Croydon Rural District Council and, due to boundary changes, later became a joint burial authority for the Corporation of Beddington and Wallington and the Coulsdon and Purley Urban District Council. The first interment in Bandon Hill Cemetery took place on March 7th 1900. With the formation of the London Boroughs in 1965, the Cemetery became jointly run by the London Boroughs of Croydon and Sutton. The Lincoln monument is the largest in the Cemetery.
