Private cemetery in Newtown that was consecrated in January 1849 and remained the main burial ground for the Church of England until the opening of Rookwood in 1868. St Stephen's Anglican church was built in the middle of it in the early 1870s. All but 4 acres of the cemetery were resumed in 1948 to become the Camperdown Memorial Rest Park.
