The '''Ascension Parish Burial Ground''', formerly St Giles and St Peter's Parish, is a [[cemetery]] in [[Cambridge]], [[England]]. It includes the graves and memorials of many [[University of Cambridge]] academics and non-conformists of the 19th and early 20th century. The cemetery encapsulates a century-and-a-half of the University's modern history. The one and a half acres of the burial ground were established in 1857 when extra burial space was needed as the city of Cambridge expanded in Victorian times. The first burial there was in 1869. Today some 2,500 people are buried in 1,500 plots. Many city and university dignitaries, scientists and scholars are buried there including two Vice-Chancellors and three Nobel prize winners. 11 members of the [[Cambridge Apostles]] are interred in this burial ground. Over one hundred Fellows, including 38 former Professors, of the University of Cambridge are buried in this cemetery. |
|||
The '''Ascension Parish Burial Ground''', formerly known as the burial ground for the [[Parish (Church of England)|parish]] of [[St Giles' Church, Cambridge|St Giles]] and [[St Peter's Church, Cambridge|St Peter's]], is a [[cemetery]] off [[Huntingdon Road]] in [[Cambridge]], [[England]]. Many notable [[University of Cambridge]] academics are buried there, including three [[Nobel Prize]] winners. |

Although a [[Church of England]] site, the cemetery includes the graves of many [[Nonconformist (Protestantism)|non-conformists]], reflecting the demographics of the parish in the 19th and 20th centuries, which covered much of West Cambridge.<ref name="50t">{{Cite web |title=Parish of the Ascension Burial Ground |url=https://www.50treasures.divinity.cam.ac.uk/treasure/parish-ascension-burial-ground/ |access-date=2021-06-28 |website=Faculty of Divinity 50 Treasures| publisher=University of Cambridge Faculty of Divinity}}</ref> |

The cemetery is located just off [[Huntingdon Road]] near the junction with [[Storey's Way]] in the northwest of Cambridge. The burial ground is a designated City Wildlife Site and is part of the Storey's Way Conservation area.<ref>{{cite web|title=Conservation Areas|url=https://www.cambridge.gov.uk/conservation-areas|publisher=Cambridge City Council|accessdate=26 June 2014}}</ref> In 2005 the plant species present were catalogued and the site is now managed so as to encourage wildlife and habitat diversity, as well as to care for the graves themselves.{{citation needed|date=March 2014}} |

Latest revision as of 12:51, 30 April 2024
The Ascension Parish Burial Ground, formerly known as the burial ground for the parish of St Giles and St Peter's, is a cemetery off Huntingdon Road in Cambridge, England. Many notable University of Cambridge academics are buried there, including three Nobel Prize winners.
Although a Church of England site, the cemetery includes the graves of many non-conformists, reflecting the demographics of the parish in the 19th and 20th centuries, which covered much of West Cambridge.[1]
It was established in 1857 while the city of Cambridge was undergoing rapid expansion, although the first burial was not until 1869.[1] It covers one and a half acres and contains 1,500 graves with 2,500 burials.[1] Originally surrounded by open fields, it is now bounded by trees and the gardens of detached houses,[2] and is a designated city wildlife site.[1]
In 2020 it was formally closed to new burials by an Order in Council,[3] and responsibility for its upkeep was transferred to Cambridge City Council.[4]
The former chapel of rest is now used as the workshop of letter-carver Eric Marland.[5][6]
