    The current cemetery was built sometime after 1878, when the villagers were resettled elsewhere on the island. Prior to that, the cemetery was located at Little Bernera, which meant transporting the remains across the Kyle by boat. The wall surrounding the cemetery was built from stones from the nearby cleared houses. The first burial took place in 1906, and the area has been expanded twice.
