SUITABLE FOR

Adults

Manchester’s Southern Cemetery is the largest and busiest municipal cemetery in the country. With Manchester tour guide Emma Fox, enjoy this tranquil Victorian green space while visiting notable graves and hearing the stories of influential Mancunians such as Lowry, Busby, Rylands, Wilson and more.

This event is graded as moderate access, due to it being a walking tour with few places to stop and sit down, as well as potentially covering some uneven terrain.
