Description

Keith Cemetery is an irregularly shaped burial ground that is surrounded by a coped rubble wall. The main entrance is located on the east side and is flanked by a pair of tool-finished ashlar gatepiers with plain caps, along with a pair of cast-iron carriage gates. The cemetery features an interesting collection of tombstones from the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries, with some of the earlier examples showcasing rich carvings and inscriptions.
