The Old Sydney Burial Ground is the site of Sydney's inaugural permanent cemetery, located near the current corner of George Street and Druitt Street.[1] Established in September 1792, the cemetery was closed in 1820, when the Devonshire Street Cemetery (also known as the Brickfield Cemetery or Sandhills Cemetery; now Central railway station) was opened;[1] the cemetery was deemed a threat to public health by Governor Lachlan Macquarie.[2]

Sydney Town Hall and parts of Town Hall railway station are located on the grounds of the cemetery.[3][4][5]
