St. George's Gardens was one of the first burial grounds established away from a church. The land was purchased in 1713 to serve the parishioners of two churches: St George the Martyr, Queen Square and (the, as yet, un-built) St George, Bloomsbury. It closed in 1855 due to overcrowding, reopening in 1885 as a public park.
