The Framlingham cemetery lies down an un-named track on the edge of the Framlingham forest, sitting perched above a valley where the Hopkins River winds on its way to the sea. For a century-and-a-half, this has been the picturesque place where residents of the Framlingham Aboriginal Reserve bury their dead. Graves are dug by hand, as is the custom, and scattered throughout the cemetery, many unmarked.

A repatriation section of the cemetery was introduced in 2003, where remains of Aborigines could be buried and "returned to country"
