I have a reference to this place in 1817. Does anybody know where it is and if any records survive for it. I have other deaths in Coventry from 1771+ but no burials at St M or HT

Welcome to our forum tenpasteight I hope one of our members can help you in your quest. Did you manage to find the bible you were searching for last year?

Hi Tenpasteight Cheers It was in Hill Street just before what is now the Ring Road:

Isn't that where the Quaker meeting house is now?

Slightly further up, where "Besp-Oak" is now. It's marked as the Congregational Burial Ground on this later map from 1888. The Meeting House is where the Friends Burial Ground used to be:

Does anyone have any information about this place, and in particular the whereabouts of any registers of burials. Roger

I remember my friend living by St. Osburg's school when they were excavating the graveyard to make room for ring road. Her house had to be knocked down to make way, and we used to find bones there on our way to school. Looking back now its very macabre.
