It sits in the middle of the abandoned whaling station. At the time it was used, however, the station was located a few hundred metres further North and the cemetery would have been on a bare hillside. A landslide buried part of the original station, hence its nickname &#8216;Jericho&#8217;. Once the station was moved to the site, a new cemetery &#8211; the main one &#8211; was started across the river to the south. Its location in the middle of the collapsing station means that it is subject to damage from wind-blown debris.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-container uagb-block-b40a669f alignfull uagb-is-root-container\"><div class=\"uagb-container-inner-blocks-wrap\">\n<div class=\"inherit-container-width wp-block-group is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Location<\/h3>\n\n\n\r\n\t\t\t\t<div class='mapster-wp-maps-container'>\r\n\t\t\t\t<div class='mapster-wp-maps-loader-container' style='height: 300px;width: 600px;'>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class='mapster-map-loader-initial'>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg width='38' height='38' viewBox='0 0 38 38' xmlns='http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg' stroke='#333'>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<g fill='none' fill-rule='evenodd'>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<g transform='translate(1 1)' stroke-width='2'>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<circle stroke-opacity='.5' cx='18' cy='18' r='18'\/>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<path d='M36 18c0-9.94-8.06-18-18-18'>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<animateTransform\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tattributeName='transform'\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\ttype='rotate'\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tfrom='0 18 18'\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tto='360 18 18'\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdur='1s'\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\trepeatCount='indefinite'\/>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/path>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/g>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/g>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/svg>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<div class='mapster-wp-maps'\r\n\t\t\t\t\tid='mapster-wp-maps-2106'\r\n\t\t\t\t\tdata-id='2106'\r\n\t\t\t\t\tdata-latitude='null'\r\n\t\t\t\t\tdata-longitude='null'\r\n\t\t\t\t\tdata-zoom='null'\r\n\t\t\t\t\tdata-single_feature_id=''>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table alignleft\"><table><thead><tr><th class=\"has-text-align-right\" data-align=\"right\">Coordinates<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Decimal Degrees<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Degrees and Decimal Minutes<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-right\" data-align=\"right\"><strong>Latitude<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">-54.1414<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">54\u00b0 08.480&#8242; S <\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-right\" data-align=\"right\"><strong>Longitude<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">-37.6873<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">037\u00b0 41.238&#8242; W<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Access<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The cemetery is inside the Leith Harbour Prohibited Area, declared by the Government in 2010 to prevent access to the dangerous station site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-image uagb-block-d588798f wp-block-uagb-image--layout-default wp-block-uagb-image--effect-static wp-block-uagb-image--align-none\"><figure class=\"wp-block-uagb-image__figure\"><a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/wildisland.gs\/cemswp\/wp-content\/uploads\/j002.jpg\" target=\"\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wildisland.gs\/cemswp\/wp-content\/uploads\/j002.jpg \" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 150px\" src=\"https:\/\/wildisland.gs\/cemswp\/wp-content\/uploads\/j002.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"uag-image-2893\" width=\"604\" height=\"400\" title=\"\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Description The Leith (Old) cemetery is the older of the two cemeteries associated with the Leith whaling station.
