October 2011 — The cemetery was formerly part of the Upton family farm. The property is currently owned by All Saints' Church (Anglican) and is set aside in the County property records as a separate ¼ acre parcel.

The cemetery has now been cleared of undergrowth and conifers and a new perimeter fence has been installed.

According to an archaeological study commissioned by All Saints' the cemetery contains five marked [field stone] burials, though more are possible.

The cemetery is on the north side of the Church on a small, wooded, rise and is enclosed by a new metal fence. There is a parking area adjacent to the cemetery with a sidewalk leading up the rise to the gate.
