The cemetery is accessed from Woola Road, (though the SW corner almost extends through to Wingham Road, and most of the cemetery can be seen to drivers coming into Taree - between some buildings, but no access.)

There are many old graves, dating back to 1863, some with the old-style metal fence surrounds. Most are in a reasonable condition, and the grounds are well maintained - though it was during drought, with very stressed lawn when I photographed it. Most of the cemetery is unfenced, with the road side of the cemetery open and unfenced. The rear of the cemetery has lots of mature trees.
[This used to be Taree's General Cemetery, and now sometimes called Woola Woola Cemetery. Dawson River Cemetery is now the preferred burial option.]
