50m from HWM. A rectangular burial ground enclosed within a well maintained drystone wall (75m x 40m NW-SE) situated on a raised beach in Badenscaille bay. Two drystone enclosures and a large number of gravestones (1778-1988) are located in the plot. A fence annex to the NW contains additional 20th century graves. Various 19th century sources describe a ruined chaepl in this location however, there are no surface indications of this structure (NMRS). The lawn and structures within the burial ground are well maintained.
