Town Hall Gardens

Originally this area opened as Chatham Burial Ground in 1828 and burials continued until 1870, when a new cemetery was opened.
In 1905, the cemetery was re-opened as the Town Hall Gardens (the new town hall having been built across Rope Walk in front of the cemetery on the corner of Whiffens Avenue and The Brook).
