Wilfred Middlebrook, in The Changing Face Of Warminster, first written in 1960, updated in 1971, noted:
There is a little cemetery on Boreham Road, with an imposing entrance inscribed “Mors Janua Vitae,” meaning presumably that “Death is the birth of a new life.” This ground was bought in shares, in 1822, for the burial of nonconformists, and in 1950 it was made into a garden of remembrance at the initial cost of Miss May Bradfield of Bath; the ground being levelled and turfed, and all the legible gravestones arranged neatly against the surrounding walls. A far different story to that of the old Quaker burial ground at Bugley, now ploughed out of existence.
