3. McLeod Street Pioneer Cemetery

This is a very attractive place where, reading the headstones, you can gain an insight into early Cairns. In middle of the cemetery there's a roster of graves, so if you're looking for someone in specific, this handy signage will facilitate your search. There is a fence all the way around the cemetery which is kept locked during hours of darkness.
