Some of the earliest burials were children, one of whom was Rose Sibbold of Durham, who died in 1923 due to whooping cough. Through the years the number of burials and headstones gradually increased.

At night it is illuminated by a flood light, thus vividly portraying to all who pass, Christ's agony on the cross.
