60 Seconds in Camperdown Cemetery Newtown NSW Australia

Newtown & Camperdown Cemetery - Sydney
Beskrivelse
Camperdown Cemetary
Camperdown Cemetery is an historic cemetery located on Church Street in Newtown, an inner-city suburb of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. The cemetery was founded in 1848 and was for twenty years the main general cemetery for Sydney, with the total number of burials being about 18,000. Many people who were important to the early history of colonial Australia are buried there.
It is the only one of Sydney's three main early cemeteries that still exists.[1]
As well as historic monuments, the cemetery also preserves important elements of landscape gardening of the mid-19th century, and examples of native flora, which are now rare in the built-up inner city. St Stephen's Anglican Church is located within the present bounds of the cemetery. The site, with St Stephen's Church, is listed by the Heritage Council of New South Wales and the National Register as a site of national importance.[2]
Camperdown Cemetery is associated with numerous sensational stories, several reputed ghosts and a murder. It is used regularly for historical and genealogical research. Because of its historical importance and convenient location, it is also a venue for excursions by schools and historical societies. Camperdown Cemetery is valued by the residents of Newtown as providing a major greenspace located in the immediate vicinity of a busy commercial centre. In a densely populated area of small terrace houses without substantial gardens, the cemetery functions as a recreational area and a venue for many family and social activities.

The Waverley Cemetery, The self funded and iconic graveyard in Sydney
The Waverley Cemetery is located on top of the cliffs at Bronte in the eastern suburbs of Sydney. The first interment occurred on 4 August 1877 and noted for its largely intact Victorian and Edwardian monuments. The size of 41 acres bounded by Trafalgar, Boundary and St Thomas streets. The cemetery is self-funded, deriving its income from interments – including burial, cremation, memorials and mausolea – of which there has been over 86,000. It contains the graves of many significant Australians including the poet Henry Lawson, Jules Archibald, founder of The Bulletin and benefactor of the Archibald Prize, nineteenth century poet Henry Kendall, the American actor William E. Sheridan, poet and author Dorothea Mackellar and author Ethel Pedley.
More than 137 years of operation remains a 100% self funded and with inspiration drawn from the reform movements occurring in London and Paris. It has never been funded by the public purse or council ratepayers, with individual graves maintained for a fee. The cemetery was a location in filming of the movie The Pyjama Girl Case in 1977, Spyforce in 1972, and in 1979 the cemetery was a location in filming of the movie Tim starring Mel Gibson. The cemetery has also been used for TV shows such as an Australian long-length episode of Baywatch and the Australian television series Home and Away. It was also used for filming of the movies Dirty Deeds and Bollywood Blockbuster Dil Chahta Hai.
This is one of Ken Unsworth's 'skeleton cyclist on a pole' variations for Sculptures by the Sea, titled 'there's many a slip 'twixt the cup and the lip'. In daylight, the skeleton is white and the stash is in a big red bag. The background is Bronte Park and left (and out) of picture is Waverley cemetery.
