Flaybrick Hill Cemetery was built in 1862-64 for the Birkenhead Improvement Commissioners. Laid out by Edward Kemp, buildings ("absurdly overwrought in the cemetery manner") by Lucy & Littler. "They have been neglected to ruin, though ruination somehow suits them". Seen here are the main gates and chapels. Grade II listed.
