hill top cemetery Leeds
The Hill Top Jewish Cemetery opened in 1873
as the name implies, the Hill Top Cemeteries are situated on top of a hill, but above a labyrinth of mining tunnels and shafts.
At the time it couldn’t have been the most pleasant of places to be buried as it was surrounded by Coal Pits, although up until 1850 it would have still been in Farnley Wood.
Those Coal Pits have come back to haunt the cemetery. Around 3000 people are buried there but the cemetery is unsafe as some of the graves are collapsing into the old coal workings.

Hi just came across your channel tonight and I'm so pleased I did,I absolutely loved it, and how sad the cemetery is now so overgrown, my passion is graveyards and cemetery's I could spend all day looking at the headstones, and I loved all the information you gave especially about the mines 😊

Thank you, that's very kind of you to say! I do like old grave yards, and headstones. I do have more planned but there just isn't enough hours in the day!

Great video Pete very informative, yes please it would be excellent if you could go back during the winter as it might allow easier/better access, what you're doing is a nice little tribute to the people interred there so hopefully you can make it back.

Middleton woods also had bell pits. At school we were doing the history of coal and went on a trip into the woods. We found the tell-tale ring of spoil around them. I believe that it was the monks from Kirkstall Abbey who mined there.

Im a mudlark and i stumbled across this cemetery last year. I didnt go into it (too scared) but the gravestones are very visible during winter months. I walked around the wooded area at the top past the mast. Love your videos.

Thank you for the comment, it was a little scary. I also had a walk around there too. mudlark! I would love to have a go at that and make a video. I went to a localish old Victorian dump a few months ago, but my limited experience came through! If interested maybe we could make a video about it and teach me! nmcgpost@gmail.com

Sorry, I'm a bit behind on your videos! Would love to see a return visit to this cemetery. It'll be safer for you in winter and we get a closer look at the headstones. Win, win !!

No rush there are plenty to take your time with, and fill some time. Thank you for watching. I would really enjoy a go at getting some more of the headstones, and any potential collapsed areas!

Three members of my family are interred here , the last being in 1999 I have visited from the south On numerous, but we were all issued letters warning us not to enter the cemetery and if we do so it is at our own risk and had to sign disclaimers . I remember how beautifully well maintained this place once was and in a very ironic way my aunt who is buried in the cemetery was huge on feeding the wildlife she used to feed the badgers the foxes et cetera and she used to say to me when we visited my grandmother‘s grave about a badger set and how she wouldn’t mind them Commandeering house wouldn’t it be brilliant to think the wish had come true

It seems a very peaceful place, nature is claiming it back, but the stones are protected from the elements and will be legible for decades to come.

Hello. Although I enjoyed your guided tour, I am very concerned that your video might encourage other people to visit what is a very dangerous, condemned site. Whilst I recognise that you are aware of the risks (and have in fact stated that you have chosen to put your own life at risk) there are many others who will not properly recognise the risks of wandering around an area which is known to be extremely high risk.
@newmotorcycleguy
@newmotorcycleguy 2 месяца назад
Thank you. I have deeply studied the maps of the area, NCB reports, maps i have been given by people who lived in the area a long time ago, and other local sources. It is an ongoing passion for the area. Quite rightly i would not recommend anyone visit this area.
