Sileby Cemetery

Sileby Cemetery


The Cemetery at Sileby, Leicestershire, England, was opened in 1881 and consists of two mortuary chapels and two acres of grounds. Yew tree hedging lines the route up to the chapels hiding many of the older stones behind it. This is one such example, and the only one I forgot to get a date for. There were some good examples of slate stones, not often seen outside of older graveyards, but many of the stones were too modern for me, and therefore not so interesting.
