Cemetery grave database

This database holds details of illegally reused graves in West Norwood Cemetery and has been created following a Consistory Court judgement.

For details on the background to this database, and the course of action to take if you find that a relative is interred under the original grant of rights in a resold plot, read our West Norwood Cemetery historical and legal background webpage.

Burials at West Norwood Cemetery which were undisturbed are not listed here, but can be found in the normal cemetery registers held in Lambeth Archives and the cemetery office. 

For more information on the cemetery, visit the Friends of West Norwood Cemetery (FOWNC) website.
