Allerton Cemetery, Grade II listed park and garden in Liverpool, England
Allerton Cemetery stretches across 150 acres, featuring three red sandstone chapels surrounded by landscaped grounds with evergreen plants and holly hedges.
The cemetery opened in 1909 after Liverpool Corporation purchased land from Allerton Hall Estate, with its first burial taking place on December 29 of that year.
The cemetery includes dedicated sections for Church of England, Roman Catholic, Jewish, Muslim, and Nonconformist burials, reflecting Liverpool's diverse religious communities.
The main entrance on Woolton Road provides access through iron gates between octagonal sandstone piers, leading to symmetrically arranged pathways throughout the grounds.
The natural woodland burial area requires biodegradable coffins and incorporates careful excavation methods to preserve the existing tree root systems.
