Nottingham General Cemetery, Grade II listed cemetery in central Nottingham, England.

The cemetery stretches across 18 acres of land with winding paths, native trees, and numerous Victorian-era monuments and gravestones throughout the grounds.

The Nottingham General Cemetery opened in 1836 following a Parliamentary Act, initially covering 14 acres before expanding by 4 additional acres in 1845.

The cemetery contains 336 Commonwealth service personnel graves from World War I and 10 from World War II, including a dedicated war graves section.

Visitors can access the cemetery through the main entrance at Canning Terrace, where an original nineteenth-century gatehouse designed by S.S. Rawlinson stands.

The cemetery features an 1838 memorial obelisk commemorating D.S. Churchill, who lost his life in a shipwreck near the Farne Islands.
