Elder Benjamin Waite Lot is located in South Kingstown, Washington County, Rhode Island. Also known as Rhode Island Historic Cemetery South Kingstown #A03, this small bury ground hosts two graves - Dr. Benjamin Waite and his wife Dorcas Gardiner Waite.

"This is Lot SK A3 in the South Kingstown Cemetery book by Sterling, Wheaton, and Bamberg. James N. Arnold visited this lot on 4 Nov 1880, writing, "on land of Benjamin Wells northwest of his house and north of his orchard in open field without protection, two graves, that of Elder Benjamin Waite and his wife." This means the lot is northwest of the Benjamin Wells Lot (SK #185). A search for these two fieldstone graves in the 1990s was unsuccessful."
