General site condition
The cemetery is now overbuilt by small industrial units. The owner of the main unit allowed me to take photographs of the area and was surprised to learn it is a Jewish cemetery. His mother believed that the cemetery was once the burial place of Tartar soldiers which adds some credibility to the confused state of the cemetery.
