In use from 1823 until 1869, the cemetery is situated in a courtyard hidden behind a stone wall, on the East side of North Sherwood Street, about 30 yards from the junction with Forest Road East.. The burial records are lost and only about 15 stones are extant. The cemetery belonged to the Nottingham Municipality but was purchased outright by the Community in 1946. The Cemetery is locked and the keys are held by the Nottingham Hebrew Congregation. Source; David Shulman, Webmaster JCR-UK [September 2016].
