Burial History in Richmond
Richmond Cemetery, established in 1786 on high ground east of Richmond Hill, is one of the older civic burial grounds in what is now Greater London — pre-dating the Victorian cemetery reform movement by nearly fifty years. East Sheen Cemetery opened in 1906 to serve the growing populations of Sheen and Mortlake. The borough retains several small historic churchyards associated with its Thames-side villages, including St Peter's, Petersham, whose records reflect the aristocratic and artistic community that shaped this corner of Surrey over several centuries.
