Bronte, Waverley Cemetery

Waverley Cemetery overlooks the Pacific Ocean, in the eastern suburb of Bronte. The first interment took place here in 1877 and this heritage listed sandstone administration building along St. Thomas Street was built around 1880 in the Victorian architectural style. The building in summer can be seen here.

  8. This is a beauty - the old architecture is simple with the stoneworks turning the simple cemetery into a fortress...
