Southern General Cemetery
Dunedin, Otago Province, New Zealand
The Southern Cemetery in Dunedin, as the name implies, is at the southern
end of the City. It is one of the oldest in the city and is in a very
attractive location. The cemetery lies facing to the north-east on a hill
side. The graves are in their rows as is the norm, but surrounded and
interspersed by old mature trees. It is composed of several divisions,
perhaps the largest is the Southern General Cemetery. Standing at the
higher side, one has a quiet view down the Otago Harbour, up which the
early settlers arrived in the sailing ships from the time the town was
developed in 1848, [DP]
