Nobby Cemetery offers headstone and ashes interment options.
The area was originally taken up as part of Clifton Station and by 1870 the land was being resumed and subdivided for closer settlement. The township of Nobby developed after the coming of the railway in 1869 and the cemetery was gazetted soon after.
The remains of several well-known people are interred in this cemetery including Sister Kenny and Victor Denton. Victor Denton’s headstone was the first heritage-listed War Memorial erected in Queensland.
The cemetery is situated on a slight rise above Mt Kent two kilometres west of Nobby. The headstones range from ground plaques to large ornate sandstone columns. The cemetery contains memorials that date back to the earliest settlers in the district.
On 16 November 1945, the Clifton Shire Council was appointed the Trustee of the Reserve for Nobby Cemetery.
