Lands End Cemetery is located on Hawleyville Road in Newtown, Connecticut. It has burials that date back to the late 1700s and appears to be still in use. Although located on a main road, the entrance is difficult to navigate. It is a rather unremarkable cemetery.

Estimated number of interments, as of January 2024: at least 1059.
