Biggleswade Cemetery
Biggleswade Cemetery (also known as Drove Road Cemetery) was the main burial ground for the town of Biggleswade in Bedfordshire. Opening in 1869, the cemetery is located on Drove Road and since 1986 has been closed for burials except for interment in family plots.〔(Biggleswade Cemeteries on the Biggleswade Town Council website )〕
==Origins==
As a result of two cholera epidemics in England during the 19th century a large number of public cemeteries were created across the country during the 1850s and 1860s. Biggleswade founded a Burial Board in 1867 and two acres on the east of the town were purchased for the new cemetery at a cost of £1,500. The first burial in the Drove Road Cemetery was in 1869, when St Andrew’s churchyard in the town centre was closed, and the last was in 1986.〔('History behind town’s chapel and cemetery' - ''Biggleswade Today'' - 28 October 2011 )〕〔Drove Road Cemetery Burial Registers (1869-1986) - Biggleswade Town Council Archive〕
