Largest cemetery in the United Kingdom ?

edit

The bbc.co.uk citation seems to indicate that and the Manchester City Council website confirms it (Manchester Cemeteries and Blackley Crematorium). Yet the Brookwood Cemetery page makes the exact same claim. I tried researching the subject, but no success. Can someone shed some light on this? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pawlit (talkcontribs) 22:27, 17 November 2013 (UTC)Reply

Southern Cemetery was the largest municipal cemetery in the UK at the time of the statement cited on the page (as of 2013). However, the distinction was technically lost when the largest ever cemetery in the UK, Brookwood Cemetery, was taken over from private ownership by Woking Borough Council (who now run it through a subsidiary body) in 2014.Cloptonson (talk) 14:58, 15 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

@J3Mrs: Please reconsider your reversion of my edit. That redlink is now a bluelink. Olive Zorian was a seriously notable musician. Narky Blert (talk) 23:08, 17 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

I only removed unreferenced material, do it yourself if notability is shown. Is findagrave an RS? J3Mrs (talk) 08:58, 18 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
