Undercliffe Cemetery

Undercliffe Cemetery is located in Bradford, West Yorkshire, England.

It stands on a hillside overlooking the city and contains some very impressive monuments, in a variety of styles. It is a notable example of a Victorian cemetery in which a number of rich and famous Bradford Dignitories and residents have been buried. Some of them Mayors, Lord Mayors and Mill owners, notably the Illingworth's memorial.

It is listed by English Heritage in their Register of Parks and Gardens of Special Historic Interest in England and is maintained by the Undercliffe Cemetery Charity and volunteers.
