Shell Green was a sloping cottonfield on the seaward side of Bolton's Ridge at the southern end of the Anzac area. Shell Green Cemetery is 300 metres up a hilly track from the coast road, which may not be driveable in wet weather.

The cemetery was used from May to December 1915, largely by the Australian Light Horse and the 9th and 11th Infantry Battalions. It was originally two cemeteries a short distance apart, but after the Armistice the two were combined and enlarged when graves were brought in from the battlefields and from Artillery Road and Artillery Road East Cemeteries, Wright's Gully Cemetery and Eighth Battery Cemetery. In 1927, the graves of a number of servicemen who died in 1922 and 1923 were also brought to Shell Green from the latter cemetery.
