Weaste Cemetery
Weaste is the oldest of Salford’s cemeteries. Since it opened in 1857 over 332,000 interments have taken place in its 39 acres.
Six of the beautiful memorial stones at Weaste have been given Grade II listed building status by English Heritage, in recognition of their ornate structure.
A cemetery heritage trail, featuring a number of well known people interred in the cemetery, is now available.

Unfortunately there are no toilet facilities at Weaste. There are a number of water taps dotted about to enable visitors to replenish any floral tributes which have been arranged on their graves.
