Originally known as the North Brisbane Burial Grounds, it was the site of Brisbane’s principal cemetery between 1843 and 1875 There was an elephant buried at Lang Park in the 1950s . Since the 1920s, the Wirths’ Circus were annual visitors to Lang Park. Their elephants were a favourite attraction and the community were saddened[B] in 1956 when Carley died and was buried at the Hale Street side of the Park. 1957 Lang Park became the home of the QRL [/B] [/QUOTE]
