The Old British Cemetery is a graveyard in Gilgit, Gilgit–Baltistan, Pakistan. It was first established in July 1870 in the British Raj's Gilgit Agency, when it came to be known as "Hayward's Garden" in memory of British explorer George W. Hayward, who was the first person to be laid to rest there. Before this, it was known as the "Jawahir Singh Bagh" during the Dogra Raj.
