Travelling North upon leaving the Forth Road Bridge take the first exit signposted for Rosyth Europark & Inverkeithing. At roundabout follow the signs for Inverkeithing B981 (Hope Street). Continue along Hope Street passing St Peter's Episcopal Church and a row of houses on the right. Almost immediately on the left is the access lane to the Cemetery entrance approximately 75 metres before the Railway Bridge.

There are twelve graves listed on the Commonwealth War Graves website and an additional sixteen family headstones which commemorate the fallen.
