Pictures Of An Old Cemetery II
This is a set of photographs that I took at the Old Cemetery in Southampton. For years the graves were just allowed to be overgrown, but now some attempts are being made to restore part of the cemetery.

Post a CommentAmazing photos. How sad for the parents who lost their three sons.
I love old cemeteries! Great pics.
Lots of unlucky sailors buried here. It's sad that parts of the cemetery are so overgrown.
These pictures are lovely. The old stones are so nice compared to today's standard slabs.
Beautiful pictures. I have always found cemetaries to be peaceful and calming.
I will have to do that Vincent, thanks.
My great-grandfather died in a boating accident in his early 30's. Good thing he didn't marry at an older age... I have put many cemeteries online. Search for my name, and you will see!
Yes John, this is the large cemetery that backs onto the common.
Nice pictures Tony. Is this cemetery next to the common in Southampton?
Nice old cemetary!
