Oystermouth Cemetery (Welsh: Mynwentydd Ystumllwynarth) is a municipal cemetery in the village of Oystermouth, Swansea, South Wales. It was opened in 1883[1] and remains in use today, run by the Cemeteries and Crematorium Division of the City and County of Swansea.[2] It has 14,162 grave spaces.
The cemetery contains the Commonwealth war graves of 83 service personnel, 28 from World War I and 55 from World War II.[3]
The cemetery offers "woodland burial ground" as an alternative to traditional burial or cremation, the first of its kind in south-west Wales.[4]
