Sutherland, Woronora cemetery, pergola

The Woronora General Cemetery is located in the southern suburb of Sutherland. This pergola, near the Woronora Crematorium, is one of many found in the landscaped gardens at the cemetery. The cemetery opened in 1895 with a special branch railway line bringing funerals to the cemetery.

  10. I am going to our cemetery quite often, recently, and find it ugly, unprotected and boiling hot in summer; ugly, unprotected and soaking wet in winter. Sutherland has shown that with a pergola and landscaped gardens, a cemetery can be a place where we might want to visit our parents and grandparents.
