About Reigate Cemetery
Following the Burial Acts of 1852 and 1853, local authority burial boards were created and many typical Victorian cemeteries opened. Among these was Reigate Cemetery, which opened in 1856.
Within the cemetery there are many impressive mausoleum and memorials in a wide variety of styles. The two Victorian buildings, the cemetery chapel and the original public mortuary are now solely used by the grounds maintenance staff.
Opening times and location
The cemetery is always open to visitors and is located next to the St. Mary Magdalene Church and Churchyard in Chart Lane, Reigate.
