The upper part of the cemetery, on the south side of Healdfield Road from http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/68254. Back in the 19th century, those of a Church of England persuasion were buried in this side, while Catholics, Methodists and other religions were buried on the other side of the road! The office block and chimney behind the trees belong to the Nestlé factory on Wheldon Road, which makes Yorkie bars and After Eight mints.
