Statement of Significance

The Cue Cemetery has high social significance for its association with the district’s residents. Although the cemetery is still in use, some of the headstones date back to the turn of the previous century affording the place historic significance as well.

Physical Description

Located to the south-west of the town, this large cemetery is surrounded by a star picket and wire fence and features a double entry gate. It contains many headstones, metal decorative surrounds and mounds and is divided into different religious sections. Landscaping works have been undertaken to create a formalised forecourt area and a series of crushed granite paths that run through the cemetery and divide the religious sections.
