Cemeteries and Crematoria

Field of Mars Cemetery

One of the oldest cemeteries in Sydney, the Field of Mars Cemetery in Quarry Road, Ryde, then part of the Field of Mars, was proclaimed on 3 December 1887, and opened in 1890. There are currently approximately 66000 people buried there. Information courtesy of Mr Kevin Shaw ‐ © Ryde District Historical Society.

Macquarie Park Cemetery and Crematorium

The Macquarie Park Cemetery and Crematorium (formerly known as the Northern Suburbs General Cemetery) opened in 1922 . The cemetery is situated on 59 hectares of Crown land on Delhi Road directly opposite the entrance to North Ryde Railway Station. It was also originally part of the Field of Mars Common.

Northern Suburbs Crematorium

Nowadays officially named the Northern Suburbs Memorial Gardens and Crematorium, the New South Wales state government made the Delhi Road site at North Ryde available for development into a crematorium in December 1931. The crematorium was opened on 28 October 1933, and the first cremation took place two days later. Located at 199 Delhi Road, North Ryde, it is the second oldest crematorium in Sydney, after Rookwood.
