Chapel at Ledbury Cemetery
Heritage Open Day: The new Cemetery and its two chapels in New Street date from the 1860s, the chapels being designed by London architect Frederick Cockerill using local stone with Bath stone dressings. In the late 1850s the graveyard at Ledbury Parish church, St. Michaels and All Angels, was full and the authorities started to look for a suitable piece of ground on which to build a new cemetery, in line with the requirements of the 1857 burial act. A piece of land of about two and a half acres
