Cleveland Pioneer Cemetery, Heritage cemetery in Cleveland, Queensland.

The Cleveland Pioneer Cemetery comprises designated sections for different religious denominations, including Church of England, Presbyterian, Wesleyan, Roman Catholic, and Jewish areas.

The cemetery operated from 1858 to 1873, with the first burial being Arthur Sidney Lyon, founder of the Moreton Bay Courier newspaper.

Local students from Cleveland Primary School created a memorial in 1975 to document and preserve information about the pioneers buried at this location.

The cemetery grounds, now part of Scott Street Park, contain large eucalyptus trees and a memorial plaque near Lisa Street listing notable burials.

Archaeological studies of this site could reveal information about early European settlement patterns and burial practices in the Redlands region of Queensland.
