Northeast corner of St Woolos Cemetery, Newport
A small part of a large cemetery viewed from Risca Road.
Most burials in Newport were originally in the churchyard of St Woolos cathedral, but by the middle of the 19th century this was totally inadequate for a town with a rapidly-growing population. 15 acres of land to the west of the cathedral, between Risca Road and Bassaleg Road, were obtained from the Tredegar Estate for the new St Woolos Cemetery, which opened in 1854.
It is the UK's oldest municipal cemetery. Its current dimensions are about 600 metres by 400 metres, roughly 60 acres.
