An unfenced, informal cemetery with approximately 25 graves was identified at this location. The graves were placed in two unequal lines in an open field. All of the graves were orientated from west to east. Three of the graves had cemented dressings with brick and cement headstones. The rest of the graves had informal oval shaped mounds of packed rocks and soil as dressings. Three of the graves at the southern end seemed to be younger and these graves were cleared recently. These three graves also had metal signs as grave markers and they belonged to the Nkabinde family. The graves ranged from 2004 to as recent as 2009. Tsemba Nkabinde, who pointed out the graves, said that the other graves belonged to the
Motau family, but this family does not reside on the farm anymore. The age of these graves are not known as yet. These graves were overgrown with grass and other vegetation and it seemed as if they were not maintained or visited regularly. No grave goods were found with these graves.
