Cemetery map
The Friends of Newtown Road Cemetery have a huge book of 12 maps that show the whole cemetery and individual graves with text showing the names of the burials according to the gravestones.
The maps were produced in 1990 by Ridge & Partners Chartered Surveyors of Theale for Newbury Town Council.
The Friends have now digitised all twelve maps and stitched them together to make a complete map of the whole cemetery which you can zoom into to help you locate graves. When the map loads, it will show the full cemetery and you can use the following methods to zoom in or move around the image.
Whilst the Friends have produced this digitised version, the copyright of the maps remains with Newbury Town Council.
