Brookwood Cemetery, Grade I listed cemetery in Brookwood, England
Brookwood Cemetery extends across 500 acres of land, containing various sections with multiple religious denominations and military graves throughout its grounds.
The London Necropolis Company established this cemetery in 1852 to address the overcrowding issues in London's burial grounds during the Victorian era.
The cemetery includes dedicated areas for different faiths, including the only Zoroastrian burial ground in Europe and sections for Muslim, Christian, and Jewish communities.
Visitors can reach the cemetery by taking a train from London Waterloo station to Brookwood station, which sits adjacent to the cemetery grounds.
The cemetery formerly connected to London through its private railway line, featuring separate carriages for different social classes and their deceased until 1941.
