Laid out on the site of the house and grounds of Caroline Mount, it was opened as a sister site to the already established Abney Park Cemetery in Stoke Newington (see Abney House and Park).
Among those buried here are the Kray twins and other members of their family, and Benjamin Pollock, founder of Pollock's Toy Museum.
