Agecroft Cemetery and Crematorium

Agecroft cemetery gates

Agecroft Cemetery was opened in 1903, and to date more than 53,700 interments have been carried out within the 45 acres of grounds.

Agecroft is the newest of the city’s cemeteries, being opened to accommodate additional new grave space due to the full utilisation of Weaste Cemetery.

The crematorium building was formerly the old Non-Conformist burial chapel. It was converted into the crematorium in January 1957, and to date has carried out over 59,250 cremation services. The chapel seats up to 80 mourners and is accessible for wheelchair users.

Major refurbishment of the crematorium building, to make it more accessible and welcoming for visitors, was completed in October 2011.

Toilets are positioned to the left of the main entrance into the cemetery and a number of water taps are located within the grounds for use by visitors.

There is a one way system for vehicles in operation which must be adhered to for insurance reasons. The authority cannot be held responsible for accidents which occur if entering or exiting at the wrong point.
