The Upper Yard burial ground in Kensington, New Hampshire, was established in 1734 on a portion of one acre of "upper" land, donated in 1733. A meetinghouse was built on this upper rise of land, with a half-acre being reserved for the burial ground, known as the "Upper Yard." The building structure, replaced in 1782, is now a Unitarian Universalist Church. The Upper Yard burial ground is bordered by a low stone wall.
