Cemetery in Palmerston North, New Zealand

Terrace End Cemetery is the oldest cemetery in Palmerston North, New Zealand.

Terrace End Cemetery, Napier Road

Almost 10,000 people have been buried in the cemetery since Rangitāne gifted the land to the fledgling Palmerston North settlement in 1875.[1]

Plots are now closed, but the descendants of those buried at the cemetery can be buried with their relatives. The cemetery was replaced by Kelvin Grove Cemetery in 1927.[2][3]
