About Swinton Cemetery
Swinton Cemetery opened in 1886 on Cemetery Road in Swinton and covers six and a half acres. It contains approximately 16,000 to 17,000 interments and benefits from an adjacent seven-acre reserve field held for future expansion. The cemetery has the distinction of containing a Unitarian burial section, which is unique among Salford's four council cemeteries. Toilet facilities are located to the right of the main entrance, and water taps are positioned throughout the grounds. Vehicle access is via Cemetery Road South and pedestrian access via Westminster Street.
Grave leases are provided from 75 years, with extensions usually available from the cemetery.
Anyone can be buried at Swinton Cemetery, but grave prices depend on residency. Lower resident rates typically apply to families living in Salford, with higher fees for non-residents. Residency rules are complex so please check with your funeral arranger.
