The cemetery opened in October 1872. It was started by the Walthamstow Burial Road who had the two chapels and belfry, together with the lodge, coroner's court and sundry buildings erected. The cemetery covers 11 acres. The small war memorial with just seven names on it is situated just north of the chapel. A close up can be seen at http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4016941 There is also a Cross Of Sacrifice War Memorial in the cemetery a little further away from the entrance to the north of this one.
