Trimmed and maintained cemetery for British military families who lived in Bermuda in the 19th and 20th centuries. First consecrated in 1812, when the Royal Navy Dockyard was still being built. Many men died later from yellow fever. The cemetery is maintained by the British War Graves Commission. Its old headstones include those of four Admirals. Close to the road are final resting places of Royal Navy seamen who died on their ships in mid Atlantic actions near Bermuda during World War II against German pocket battleships and U-boats.
