Directions | From Highway 169, travel to Torrance which is 5 km south of Bala. Turn south onto Kilworthy Road, Highway 13. The road is rough and winding. The cemetery is located 17.5 km from Torrance on the west side of the road. The cemetery can also be approached from Highway 11. If you are traveling south along Highway 11, turn west onto Highway 19, Biers Road, about 6 km south of Gravenhurst. If you are traveling north along Highway 11, take the Sedore Road exit about 12.5 km north of Severn Bridge and follow it to Highway 19. Highway 19 will eventually meet up with Highway 13. The cemetery is approximately 14.5 km from Highway 11. |
The church which once stood here was built in 1932 by the local people. It is no longer standing and must have collapsed during the past couple of winters. I last saw the church standing in 1995 but it was boarded up. The property for the church and cemetery was owned by William Smith. The graves can be found at the back of the property behind the former church.
