Linwood Cemetery is a cemetery located in Linwood, Christchurch, New Zealand. It is the fifth oldest public cemetery in the city. Despite its age, it is still open for ashes interment, Hebrew Congregational burials and if there is space in existing family plots. Opened in 1884, it has seen some 20,000 burials. The first burial, of the Sexton's wife, was held in July 1884 before the cemetery was opened. For some years, a tram line stopped within the cemetery before terminating on what is now Pages Road. The tram lines going into the cemetery are still visible under the tar-sealed road leading from the Butterfield Avenue car park. A tram hearse was built at some expense for the time by the Christchurch City Council but is believed to have never been used.

  • El Cementerio de Linwood (en inglés: Linwood Cemetery)​ es un cementerio situado en Linwood, Christchurch, Nueva Zelanda. Es el quinto más antiguo cementerio público de la ciudad. A pesar de su antigüedad está todavía abierto para las personas, entierros hebreos congregacionales y si hay espacio para parcelas familiares existentes. Inaugurado en 1884, ha visto alrededor de 20.000 entierros. El primer entierro fue el de la esposa del sacristán, que se llevó a cabo en julio de 1884 Antes de que se abriera el cementerio. Hace algunos años, una línea de tranvía se detuvo en el cementerio antes de terminar en lo que hoy es Pages Road. Las líneas de tranvía que van al cementerio son todavía visibles en la carretera que va desde el estacionamiento de la avenida Butterfield. (es)
