St Mary Cray Cemetery sandwiched between the railway and Star Lane dates from 1884. It is a strange mixture, notable for its simple R.A.F. graves and elaborate traveller's graves. St Mary Cray Cemetery was used during the Second World War by the nearby R.A.F. Station at Biggin Hill, and the majority of its 59 war burials are of airmen. The war graves plot here contains 50 of the 59 Commonwealth burials and the graves of three Polish airmen. The rest of the war graves are scattered throughout the cemetery. Two of the burials are unidentified airman of the R.A.F.

For reasons currently unknown the council have blocked the road just beyond the right turn ahead which is the only way out now, meaning it is now impossible to drive directly to Swanley and need to return to Crockenhill Road.
