Bubbling Well Cemetery (Jing'an), opened 1898, closed 1951, total burials c.5,500, total cremations, c.1,350. In the winter of 1953-54 the cemetery was reclaimed for redevelopment. If families were able to make arrangements, graves were removed to the Dachang cemetery, in Baoshan. The authorities in fact gave very little notice of these developments, however, and few will have been transferred. The Dachang cemetery was destroyed during the Cultural Revolution period, and various factories were built on the site. There were 43 British naval and 13 British military graves at Bubbling Well. In the process of removal of the military graves the Chinese authorities deliberately obliterated all details other than names. The present Jing'an Park occupies the site.
