Although the church has been long since demolished, the graveyard for the old Zion (Independent) Chapel (founded in 1818) remains. Now associated with Kirkham United Reformed Church, but adjacent to the Manse Nursing Home in the centre of Kirkham, an unusual isolated burial-ground, but still well kept and maintained.
