Frenchs Forest Bushland Cemetery

Frenchs Forest Bushland Cemetery is located in the suburb of Frenchs Forest occupying an area of 22 hectares. It is one of the main cemeteries on the Northern Beaches and is the only cemetery in the Forest district. It has been managed since 29 June 2012 by the Northern Metropolitan Cemeteries Trust (known as Northern Cemeteries).

History
On 23 January 1932, the Lands Department gazetted the site and officially dedicated it on 8 October 1937 with the first burial taking place on 24 April 1940. The Anglican Archbishop of Sydney, Howard Mowll, consecrated the Cemetery on 20 February 1955 and Rabbi Israel Porush, senior rabbi at the Great Synagogue, Sydney, consecrated the cemetery on 12 September 1943. Up to 1990 the Cemetery was known as "Frenchs Forest General Cemetery", with the change to the present name being adopted to reflect its native bushland setting.
