Payneham Cemetery is a cemetery in Adelaide, South Australia. Located on Marian Road, Payneham South, it was established by the Argent Street Primitive Methodist Church, with the first burial occurring in 1864.

History

The land (Allotment 107 of Section 285) was purchased by the Argent Street Church Trustees from Henry Ellis in 1846. A Primitive Methodist church was opened in 1859 and burials commenced in the cemetery in 1864.

There has been significant grave reuse, to the extent that the cemetery was considered not eligible for State heritage protection in 1990, on 26 October 2006 the 1864 cemetery reserve, all headstones and monuments was added to the local register.[http://maps.sa.gov.au/heritagesearch/HeritageItem.aspx?p_heritageno=7335 Heritage Places Database Search: Payneham Cemetery]
