Kensington Jewish Cemetery
Firstly let me introduce myself and say what a great site/forum Yo Liverpool is. I work closely with Ross (Ross 08) to study local history and interests.
I will be looking to post regularly, helping with peoples questions where I can and likewise, asking for help on things I am working on.
Let's get going then! Firstly, I would be grateful if anyone could provide me with any information on this 'disused' graveyard in Dean Road, which runs between Kensington and Edge Lane.

I have visited the site and it appears to contain gravestones with what I would say could be possibly Jewish inscriptures on. Looks like nobody has been inthere for some time and access is prohibited.
Any help greatly appreciated. Cheers, Stu.
Jewish Cemetery, Deane Road.
It was consecrated in September 1837.
Deane Road was then called Deane Street.
It was closed in 1904 when Broad Green Cemetery opened.
Above the entry it says: "Here the weary are at rest", which is presumably repeated in Jewish.
Kensingtons Jewish Cemetry
This is the entrance to Kensington's Jewish Cemetery, it's opposite the Lidl, there is talk of it being re-opened to the Public
