South Ealing Cemetery (formerly Ealing and Old Brentford Cemetery) is a cemetery in Ealing established in 1861. [1] It covers 21 acres. [2]
Contents
The cemetery contains the Commonwealth war graves of 184 armed service personnel, as well as that of Pierre Francois Van Wesemael, a Belgian soldier of World War I. [2] [3]
The cemetery contains two Grade II listed chapels at the South Ealing Road entrance. The chapels are linked by a carriage arch, with clock and belfry above, designed by Ealing's prolific municipal architect Charles Jones (architect) and built in 1861. [4] The stained glass in the chapel was designed in 1908 by the Ealing designer, Edward Stanley Watkins, who lived nearby on Ranelagh Road. [5]
The Ealing Parks Foundation, working with local volunteers and Ealing Council, is leading a project to renovate the chapels and restore use of the cemetery grounds for nature and public wellbeing. [6]
