Holbeck Cemetery

Holbeck Cemetery, while modest in size at just 10 acres, holds a wealth of historical interest, with numerous fascinating memorials commemorating individuals connected to the local brewing industry. Among its notable graves are those of Joseph and Rachel Barker, innkeepers, as well as various publicans and brewers from Holbeck's vibrant past.

The cemetery is also a hub for community activities, including the Holbeck Gala, where local ales are served in a beer tent supported by the Friends of Holbeck Cemetery. This annual event celebrates the area's rich heritage while fostering a sense of community among residents and visitors alike.
