The pillars, walls and gates at the entrance to the historic Paines Lane Cemetery have been repaired and repainted, funded by the Pinner Ward Councillors’ NCIL funds (a levy on building developments in Harrow to provide money for works which benefit local residents) after a request from The Pinner Association that the rather dilapidated entranceway be brought back to its former glory.
The cemetery, which is no longer in use for new burials, contains the Grade II Listed Structure grave of Horatia Nelson, the daughter of Emma, Lady Hamilton, and Admiral Lord Horatio Nelson and also official War Graves registered with the War Graves Commission. It is Locally Listed and a Designated Open Space.
