The cemetery is 55 ft x 55 ft, in good condition, and enclosed with granite posts and iron rails with an iron gate. The historic cemetery sign is missing. There are 13 burials with eight inscribed stones. James N. Arnold visited this lot on 10 Oct. 1904 and noted, “About…20 rods South [of Josiah Colvin Lot - Scituate Historical Cemetery #123 on Lebrea Way], lot like above [stone wall]. A burial lot protected [by] iron rods, some neglected” (Vol. 6, Book J, page 1396). Amelia K. Whitford also transcribed this cemetery Recorded by Dr. Bill Eddleman and John Sterling for a 1998 book on Coventry cemeteries
