Ash and plane trees are planted at the cemetery, which is 1 acre (0.40 ha) in size. It has been described as a "tiny" cemetery that is "totally unexpected in the Fulham Road" and creates an impression "more typical of Prague than London".
The cemetery is owned by the Western Charitable Foundation, and is open only by appointment.
