Cremation - Burial

Cremation

There are certain forms that you will be required to sign. The cost of the crematoria are governed by local authorities. Arrangements may be made for erecting a plaque but there could be a charge. We can enquire for you.

Burial

There will normally be a request for a pre-arranged grave space in a churchyard or cemetery. The church of England has set fees for burials of which we will advise you. The costs may be higher for the burial of someone who lived outside the parish.

Many churchyards are no longer open for business for burials because there is no space left. If a space has been paid for in a cemetery, there will be a deed of grant, which should be produced to allow the grave to be opened. Most non-denominated cemeteries are owned by either local authorities or private companies, so fees may vary.
