St John's New Cemetery
La Rue du Cimetiere, St John, Bailiwick of Jersey.
Details
St. John's New Cemetery is located in the Parish of St. John, Jersey, Channel Islands. It serves as the primary burial ground for the parish, having replaced the original churchyard of St. John's Parish Church, which is no longer used for new burials.
The cemetery features an entrance gateway and boundary wall dating back to 1867. The eastern boundary wall is noted for its collection of re-set churchwardens stones from the 18th and 19th centuries, which are presumed to have originated from the St. John's Parish Church yard. The site also contains at least one Commonwealth war grave from the First World War.
