Mt York, NSW

Located on land behind the Collits Inn, this small cemetery contains many old graves, including the first Rawsthorne in Australia, Thomas, and his wife's parents, Pierce and Mary Collits. Henry Lawson's father is also buried here.

Entry to the cemetery is via a short 250 meter walk from a small carpark. The cemetery is surrounded by bushland, and the original feel of the cemetery has been maintained, keeping much of the wild grasses rather than normal grass prevalent in other cemeteries.
