Cemetery information:-
There seem to be two very small cemeteries right next to each other. In the older one there are about 30 graves. Most are with a simple piece of shale as the gravestone. In the newer one there are about 24 graves and again many have just a simple piece of shale as the gravestone. Also, some of the gravestones were made of plaster on some soil and these have deteriorated such that the writing is not legible.
