Weaste Cemetery
Weaste is the oldest of Salford's four 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 but a water tap is available next to the main entrance to enable visitors to replenish any floral tributes which have been arranged on their graves.
