How do you make a cemetery? – An introduction to Woodbury Park Cemetery, a Victorian gem

Join us for this walk around Woodbury Park Cemetery where we’ll be exploring the 2025 theme of ‘architecture’. You’ll hear about the history of the cemetery, how it came to be and who was involved with its creation. Plus learn about the physical architecture of the buildings as well as the social architecture of those who rest in the cemetery.

The walk is the last in a series of events held in collaboration between Trinity Theatre and the Friends of Woodbury Park Cemetery. Since Woodbury Park Cemetery opened in 1849 when Trinity churchyard was considered ‘full’ and it was originally known as Trinity New Cemetery, we’re celebrating the long link between the cemetery and today’s Trinity Theatre.
