They were tenants of Ruxley Manor House and farm from the last quarters of the seventeenth century. The churchyard was closed by Order in Council on 29 May 2000 and is now maintained by Bexley London Borough. There is a cemetery (churchyard extension) in Parsonage Lane, North Cray, which covers approximately 2.5 acres – this is still open for burials. Part is used as a memorial garden for interment of cremated remains.
