Brookfields Cemetery

Very interesting place to walk through, lots of old graves and interesting stuff to read.

Interesting cemetery in the heart of the jewellery quarter, previously a quarry hence the catacombs where the old quarry face used to be, all sealed up now unfortunately due to vandals back in the 90’s but still an interesting sight to see in the middle of birmingham

Close to the Jewelery Quarter. Graves everywhere. A somewhat dark place and bit of tranquility. Worth the visit.

This is worth a visit definitely something different in our wonderful city. I need to go back wit( a proper camera hopefully on a sunny day.

Not far from the centre of Birmingham .Near to the Jewellery quarter in Hockley. Is this fascinating old grave yard with catacombs. (All Sealed up now) used as air raid shelters in the 2 world war.

Quiet and peaceful

Stumbled on this cemetery while in the quarter , never seen anything like this in a cemetery before.It was a damp dull afternoon and this added a spooky feel to the place. It was like something from a filmset.

Cemetery Home of the Midlands Catacombs that goes back to 1800, buried place of the the very people that put Birmingham on the world industrial era.

Warstone Lane Cemetery is one of two cemeteries in the city's Jewellery Quarter, the other being Key Hill Cemetery. It is worth a short visit to this old cemetery to walk along the ancient paths and see the unusual design of the gardens. The original grounds was a quarry which explains the design of the catacombs. The catacombs where built over several levels where the digging in the quarry used to be, so you get this pretty almost amphitheatre visual effect when viewing the catacombs from the south or a nice panoramic view from the north.A couple of the prominent people buried here are John Baskerville, the industrialist and atheist, and John Postgate, the surgeon and food safety campaigner.It's about two minutes walk from the Jewellery Quarter Tram/Train station, but don't go out of the way though.
