Mill Hill Cemetery is a non-denominational cemetery that opened in 1936. It is located in Mill Hill, in the London Borough of Barnet, England.
The cemetery was originally known as "Paddington New Cemetery".
History
In 1923, the Metropolitan Borough of Paddington decided to acquire land further outside of London, as its existing cemetery in Willesden Lane, Kilburn (now known as Paddington Old Cemetery) was reaching capacity. The council acquired land in Mill Hill in 1933 and the cemetery was opened in 1936 as "Paddington New Cemetery".
A chapel was opened in 1937.
The cemetery contains a Commonwealth War Graves Commission burial site for 53 British and 254 Dutch casualties of World War II. After World War II, a small plot of land in the north of the cemetery was given by the Borough of Paddington to the Netherland War Graves Commission to form the Dutch National War Memorial in Great Britain, containing the remains of 254 Dutch servicemen and women killed during World War II, as well as 180 other names commemorated on larger memorial stones.
