The Golders Green Jewish Cemetery, also known as Hoop Lane Jewish Cemetery, is a Jewish cemetery in Golders Green, London. It is maintained by the Joint Burial Committee (JBC) on behalf of the West London Synagogue and the Spanish and Portuguese Jews Congregation.

Location

The cemetery is located on Hoop Lane, in Golders Green in the London Borough of Barnet, across the street from the Golders Green Crematorium. Just inside the gates is a small building, with two halls for burial services, and a drinking fountain.

History

The cemetery was opened in 1895. The cemetery is divided into two parts. On the West Side, used by West London Synagogue, the graves are marked with an upright stone. The East Side, used by the Spanish and Portuguese Jews' Congregation,[1] is organised in the form of traditional Sephardi cemetery (one of the few left in London); the gravestones are laid horizontally, as traditionally the burial ground was too unstable for an upright stone.
