Geocache Description:


Pioneers Memorial Park is the Former site of the Balmain Cemetery.
Between the 1860s and 1912  the site received 10,608 burials.  The Cemetery was renamed Pioneers Memorial Park in 1941 as a lasting tribute to the pioneers of the district and as a place of quiet recreation and enjoyment for future generations. 
Prior to the conversion and preparation of the cemetery as a park, Leichhardt Council advertised its intentions to remove the headstones and grave enclosures. Relatives of the people buried in the cemetery were given time to arrange reinterment. In total 14 tombstones were relocated. Those headstones not removed were used for stone walls and the leveling of the park. The other 10594 graves - you're walking on them.
WARNING: There is a small electrical switchboard on this structure that is UNLOCKED. Please don't poke around in there, the cache is not inside.
