It was officially opened on 28 October 1933, and the first cremation took place on 30 October.[1] Northern Suburbs Crematorium was the second crematorium in New South Wales. It was designed by Frank I'Anson Bloomfield (1879-1949), who was cremated there, and also designed NSW's and Sydney's first crematorium at Rookwood Cemetery.[2][1] Bloomfield designed both places with a view to an authentic "florentine" feel. The grounds feature Art Deco statues, Royal Doulton tiles,[3] classic iron work and other period features. The Memorial Gardens is a heritage listed site[4] and often features in historical tours of Sydney and the North Shore.[1] The most notable interments include two Prime Ministers of Australia, Chris Watson and Joseph Cook, one Premier of New South Wales and later Governor-General of Australia, Sir William McKell, and the poet and author of Waltzing Matilda, Banjo Paterson. In 2012 a new Function Centre was opened by the Governor of New South Wales, Professor Marie Bashir.[7] Notable intermentsThe cremated remains of notable persons located at Northern Suburbs Crematorium include:
