A very apt description, it is a mound indeed, along a 50 m stretch.
I wonder if there  are any images of it before the mound  was created.

Just an observation following my brief visit 20-12-24.
I was specifically interested in Square 7 and 23, these are  at the Langton Road end running along the Woodvale perimeter. Where 2 ancestors were interred 1873 and 1877, so relatively early in the cemetery use. There was no indication that stones  if any have survived for .Jacob and Sophia WELLS.
Square 1/2+6/7+15 +28 appear to have very modern graves, and are at a higher level. I understand this was empty, and what appeared to be waste ground 1970-80, suggesting it had been overfilled pre 1970 perhaps in readiness for new graves.
Square 8 +16+24 and some of 23 have some Victorian era stones.
I did take  a few images of head stones in this area, and will make a list and submit it in the next week.
There must be a more comprehensive survey somewhere, especially if the old headstones were possibly removed prior to any preparation forcre-use.

Thank you your help, Zachtr, I will look at FindMyPast as you suggest.

I am currently researching the extended famiies of Charles WEEDEN and  Sophia HILL, but suspect my main focus is Sophia's ancestors.
I am investigating whether Sophia HILL's family is connected to the COOK/COOKE family of Maidstone.
This is due to the presence of Jacob WELLS at the WEEDEN household in 1851, the census entry has his age and name incorrectly interpreted. No coincidence that Jacob was a papermaker. (Connecred postings exist for WELLS and COOK enquiries)
His wife Sophia COOKE baot in Loose 1804. To John and Ann COOKE.
I will be looking for anyone with a DNA test  with a paper trail  ancestry with Sophia HILL or her assumed parents William HILL and Ann.

John COOK married Martha AVIS in St John Horsleydown, Southwark 4th Aug 1743.
Certainly 2 but probably 3 children are identified as their children baptised In the same or adjacent  parish, but the first child almost 5 years after their marriage , and a gap 1752 to 1761.
For both early bapts John 's occupation is detailed as plaisterer, ( no identified Guild record yet)
Daughter Avis on 14th April 1748, buried 11th June  1748.
John Robert 1st July 1750.
Possibly Martha Mary 15 June 1763, St Mary Magdalene, Bermondsey, Southwark, Surrey, England, abode Holly, but occupation Porter.
There are baptisms for another 3  children to a John and Martha in this general area, that are probably not the same couple, but a John COOK and Martha PRYKE married 12 May 1759 in Holborn
Elizabeth Skelton 29th Aug 1759, father is John (elder) St Paul, Shadwell, Tower Hamlets, no occ for father.
Esther 25 Dec 1760,  St James, Clerkenwell
Elizabeth 12 Feb 1767 St George the Martyr, Queen Square, Camden, Middlesex.
The main question is what adjacent or close parishes are not currently covered on the main Genealogy sites as searchable records.
This might allow those parishes to be targetted and checked for additional siblings.
It is possible that John and Martha migrated, and specifically to Kent. The occurrence of the name Avis as a forename in a COOK family in Kent might be a link, and is the catalyst for this family to be researched as potential ancestors . A previous posting of COOK in Brasted Kent is part of the overall research.
Martha's AVIS family appears to be identified in St Olave, but is not the intended target for this post.
If current records on line  are anywhere near complete, it would seem that Martha'' parents , Robert ( occ baker) and Mary married in Withyham, Sussex, before migrating to Surrey, this seems plausible as Robert and Mary don't appear to feature in baptisms in Sussex after their marriage.
