Individually inscribed wooden war memorial panels line the walls. Each panel includes the name of a war casualty in gilt lettering with rank, unit and date of

CIMETIÈRE DE SUN QUARRY Pas de Calais, France
Cherisy est un village à 13 kilomètres environ au sud-ouest d'Arras. Le cimetière se trouve à 1.5 kilomètres au sud-ouest du village, du côté nord-ouest de la route D38 qui mène à Hendecourt. Le village de Cherisy a été capturé par la 18e Division alliée le 3 mai 1917, mais il a été repris la même nuit par les Allemands, qui s'y sont maintenus jusqu'à ce que le Corps canadien le reprenne, le 27 août 1918. Le cimetière porte le nom d'une carrière de silex située à courte distance au sud-est de Cherisy et que l'armée britannique avait surnommée « sun quarry ». Le cimetière a une superficie de 462 mètres carrés et est entouré d'un mur de briques.
