    Consecrated in 1873, this small cemetery located on the A1034 was opened when the churchyard at the historic All Saint's Church became overcrowded. The chapel has unusual red acorn roof tiles, an apsidal east end and bell turret at the west end. The first interment in the cemetery was of William Thompson, aged 7 months.

    The parish church of St Everilda in Nether Poppleton, a few miles north of York, has its origins to the 7th century, and still retains stained glass from the 13th and 14th centuries. It is one of only two churches in England named after this 7th century Saxon saint. The churchyard is a peaceful and quietly unassuming place. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nether_Poppleton

    St Mary's (Scarborough)

    St Mary's dates to about 1150, although it resides on land where an earlier church from approximately 1000AD once stood. It is situated in the historic Yorkshire seacoast town of Scarborough, just down the hill from Scarborough Castle, which was built on the site of a Roman signal station in the 1130's. The church was heavily damaged in the English Civil War, and again when it was hit by a German parachute bomb in WW2. The zigzag pattern of the headstones was laid out by church administrators when it was decided that the churchyard itself should be opened to community events. The bodies still remain under the churchyard soil in their original plots, but the headstones were aligned to allow greater use of the land.

    The York City Cemetery was founded in 1837 as a private concern and covers 24 acres just outside the ancient city's walls. It is now managed by a locally operated trust, after falling into sad disrepair in the 1960's and 1970's. It is a compelling and overwhelming place, heavily overgrown but rich with spectacular 19th and 20th century stonework. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/York_Cemetery,_York

  • York Minster

    York Minster

    13 photos

    The York Minster is one of the most important religious sites in England, with a history that extends back to 627. The current structure, like most large religious buildings in Europe, was built, rebuilt and extended many times over its lifetime, but the primary structure dates to about the 11th century. It is inarguably one of England's foundational historic treasures and the centerpiece of the deeply historic city of York. Archbishops extending back to the 11th century are buried here. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/York_Minster
