Overleigh Cemetery is in Grosvenor Road on the south side of the River Dee in Chester, Cheshire, England. The original part of the cemetery is listed at Grade II in the National Register of Historic Parks and Gardens. ==History==
The cemetery was laid out between 1848 and 1850 by T. M. Penson. This part of the cemetery is described by the authors of the ''Buildings of England'' series as having been "highly romantic", and as still being "eminently picturesque". It was opened in 1850 and was consecrated on 12 November by the Bishop of Chester. In 1875 the cemetery contained a lake with three islands, two chapels, two lodges, paths and trees, and a house for the chaplain. It was extended to the south in 1879 (this part is not included in the listing), and in 1904 a new chapel was built in this part of the cemetery. In 1930 the cemetery came into the ownership of Chester City Council, and it was further extended to the south during the 20th century.〔 Penson's lake, lodges and chapels are no longer present. The south part of the cemetery is described as being "prosaic".〔
