About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

The Anglican Diocese of Newcastle operate the columbarium and memorial garden located adjacent to each other and joined to the northern side of the Cathedral building.

(1) Columbarium - brick wall columbarium with niches for ashes and a closing plaque for each occupied niche.

(2) Memorial Garden - ashes are placed in the garden at a service of interment conducted by a member of the clergy. A permanent record of interment is made and kept in the Cathedral records and a certificate issued to the family. The names of those whose ashes are interred in the garden are recorded in a Book of Remembrance displayed in the Cathedral, and an additional record will be kept through the Christ Church Cathedral Memorial Garden web page on the Cathedral website. Families may elect to add biographical details via a link on the website.

Explanatory Note:- The columbarium and memorial garden should not be confused with the historic Christ Church Cathedral Cemetery (or Cathedral Park) located in the former churchyard grounds to the north of the Cathedral and extending as far as King Street, which is administered by the Newcastle City Council and created as FAG Cemetery ID 2290875.
