Registered Name |
Willaston Cemetery |
Significance |
One of the first large public cemeteries to be established after the passing of the Regulation of Cemeteries Act in 1862, the Willaston Cemetery reflects contemporary social attitudes towards the location, management and layout of cemeteries in the mid 19th century. It contains the graves of some of South Australia's most significant industrial figures and is noted for its high quality monuments and outstanding collection of cast iron work, associated with Gawler's role as an industrial centre.
