Located on Vicar Lane in South Ossett and operated by Christ Church.

In 2008 Eric Howard found a WWI memorial with the names of 92 local people killed in the war in bad condition and barely readable. He restored it and could then be properly registered with the War Graves Commission. The Royal British Legion and Christ Church, South Ossett, then held a special ceremony honoring the soldiers and to thank Mr Howard.

None of these graves go back to the 1800's. Two nearby older cemeteries have been destroyed including one in 2002.
