Malmsbury Cemetery Tour – Introduction to Stone and Stoneworkers

Stone is a natural part of our landscape and man has used stone for millennia for a variety of purposes including gravestones. Cemeteries are an ideal place to experience first-hand a wide range of stones from many countries. Malmsbury bluestone is now a designated Global Heritage Stone Resource, a first for an Australian stone.
