The Silent Watch.

Williamstown Cemetery, Williamstown, South Australia.

The Williamstown Cemetery in South Australia, located on Church Street, is a significant historical site managed by The Barossa Council. It is often distinguished from the larger maritime cemetery of the same name in Victoria.

The cemetery was established in the late 1850s, closely tied to the early European settlement of the Williamstown area (originally known as Victoria Creek). The township itself was a private subdivision created around 1857-1858.

Burials: The site contains a variety of grave styles, ranging from early slate and sandstone headstones of the pioneer era to more modern granite monuments and a niche wall for cremated remains.
