Biographical history
Established 1804 as the burial ground for the settlement of Hobart Town, and for many years the only one. It was closed in 1872 after the establishment of Cornelian Bay. After sitting unused for fifty years, it was converted to a park in the 1920s. Some of the larger tombs remain in situ but all the other headstones were removed. The surviving stones have been built into memorial walls at the south-eastern end of the park.
