Coming out of Wareham's Hardware 371 Main Rd, Arnold's Cove, NL A0B 1A0, turn sharp left and onto .. "High Liner Drive" .. stay on High Liner Drive a few minutes on the left. . Turn left to High Liner Dr. and continue to Peach Str. Turn right on Peach Str. through the houses to the dead end and park at the end of street. Walk the last 50 meters.

The Salvation Army Cemetery at Arnold's Cove has spiritual and historic significance as the first and only cemetery associated specifically with that religious and charitable group in the town, and as one of the oldest known cemeteries there. The Salvation Army was established in Arnold's Cove by the turn of the twentieth century. The earliest date of death recorded on a headstone is 1911, and the latest is 1973. However, the period during which the cemetery was used for burials may go beyond that range given that there are likely unmarked graves and that some wooden gravemarkers have become illegible.
