Arnos Vale Cemetery () (also written Arno's Vale Cemetery), located in Arnos Vale, Bristol, England, was established in 1837. Its first burial was in 1839. The cemetery followed a joint-stock model, funded by shareholders. It was laid out as an Arcadian landscape with buildings by Charles Underwood. Arnos Vale cemetery is located on the road from Bristol to Bath (A4). The cemetery is located just before Edward Road and Brislington, about a mile from Temple Meads railway station and about 2 miles from Bristol bus station. The cemetery includes a number of listed buildings and monuments, including the Grade II * listed Church of England Mortuary Chapel,〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=Images of England )〕 Nonconformist Mortuary Chapel,〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=Images of England )〕 and entrance lodges and gates〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=Images of England )〕 and screen walls to main entrance.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=Images of England )〕 During the 20th century the cemetery fell into disrepair, and local groups began campaigning for its restoration. In 2003 it was featured on the BBC programme ''Restoration''. The cemetery was a South West region runner-up and has since received a £4.8 million Heritage Lottery Fund grant.
