CommentThis cemetery is located 350 feet north of Bridgetown Road at telephone pole #3369. It is three hundred feet east of SK067 toward the Narrow River along a stone wall. It is sixty feet by forty feet, in good condition, with no enclosure, and the historical cemetery sign is in good condition. It contains 25 burials with eight inscribed stones and 17 fieldstones. James N. Arnold visited this lot Mar. 29, 1880, his #69, “in open lot unprotected a short distance from Pettaquamscutt upper bridge southwest from here is a burial yard of the Gardiner family.” Recorded by John Sterling and James Wheaton for a 2004 book on South Kingstown cemeteries.
