Weaste Cemetery Trail

Grade II listed Weaste Cemetery, opened in 1857, is the final resting place of many famous figures throughout history, including Joseph Brotherton, MP for Salford 1832, Sir Charles Halle, founder of the Halle Orchestra, Busby Babe Eddie Colman and local legend Mark Addy.

In the Victorian age cemeteries were considered to be amenities like parks and gardens and were usually designed in a similar way. Weaste Cemetery was no exception and its beautiful design makes for a peaceful and atmospheric site. You can now find out more about the heritage and ecology of Weaste with the Weaste Cemetery Trail, which points out the highlights of the 39 acre green oasis.
