Does anyone have any photographs of this cemetery?

That appears to be it.  Do you know if any lists survive of those buried there?  I am interested in Thomas Collins, born 17 December 1889 in Nanagh and who died in the UK on 27 December 1917 whilst serving in the NZ Expeditionary Force.

Thank you for the register.  It would appear the Thomas Collins I am interested in is buried in an unmarked grave.  His name is on the memorial in Grangegorman Cemetery, Co Dublin.
