Newclare CemeteryView
Located to the west of Johannesburg, in the suburb of Bosmont, Newclare Cemetery was built in 1934. Servicing the suburbs of Westbury, Newlands and Riverlea, Newclare is a quiet location, ringed by gold-mine getimage_copy. jpgdumps. The cemetery is split by Maraisburg Road one side holding older graves, the other the Walter Sisulu Memorial Garden, Chinese and Muslim section.
