Welcome

Brookwood Cemetery is the largest cemetery in the UK and was established in 1852 by the London Necropolis Company.

A Grade I listed park and garden, this unique cemetery in the heart of Surrey, continues to serve as a resting place for people of all faiths and none and is open daily for visitors to explore.
