"On a west facing slope, with a number of country style flat wrought iron grave surrounds with decorative corner posts, peculiar to the district."
"Several large eucalypts, clumps of Agapanthus and a few roses enhance the setting and kangaroo grass and periwinkle create a dense ground cover. The monuments range from 1880' sandstone tablets, through vertical granite (1914-27) and marble (1915-23) monuments to marble/stone composite slabs (1910/-50) and tiled slabs (1950's-70). The chief feature of the graveyard is the unusual variety and number of 'country' style wrought iron grave surrounds with decorative corner posts, peculiar to the district."
