Description : Active from 1855 to 1905, it was the final resting place for 250 of the early settlers of Dunkeld, many of whom were of Scottish ancestry. Although the first burials were in the 1850s, the cemetery wasn't gazetted until Oct. 16, 1866. The Health Department closed the cemetery in 1901, as stony ground made it too difficult to dig the graves to sufficient depth. Burials continued, with some gravediggers resorting to blasting, until 1905 when the first burial took place at the New Dunkeld Cemetery.
