The Dissenters' Burying Ground at Ponsharden, Falmouth was opened in 1808 for the use of the nonconformist Christian congregations of Falmouth & Penryn.

It received approx 580 burials before being abandoned in the early 20th century, after which it suffered from significant neglect and vandalism.

Work is currently taking place to save this cemetery and secure its future.
