Cemitério de Warriston (em inglês: Warriston Cemetery) é um cemitério em Warriston, um dos subúrbios ao norte de Edimburgo, Escócia. Foi construído pela então recém-formada Edinburgh Cemetery Company, e ocupa cerca de 14 acres (5,7 ha) de terra em um local levemente inclinado. Contém dezenas de milhares de sepulturas, incluindo pessoas notáveis vitorianas e eduardianas, sendo o mais eminente o médico Sir James Young Simpson.

O cemitério é protegido como um listed building Categoria A.[1]
