The cemetery is located on the western side of Old Luss Road. It is depicted on the first-edition OS map (surveyed in 1860). The Ordnance Gazetteer of Scotland (1885), in its entry for Helensburgh, mentions "a cemetery company, with a beautifully situated extramural cemetery" (the Helensburgh Cemetery Company was formally wound up c.1950).
