Viewed across Watery Lane. Many former cemetery lodges are now private residences, but this one is used as town council offices. The cemetery behind the lodge opened in 1864. An 1876 commercial directory and gazetteer of Newent recorded that the occupier of the lodge was Henry Jellyman, tailor and sexton.
