Provision of Burial Grounds
There is an ongoing programme for the provision and extension of burial grounds within available resources. Land has to be identified and trial holes made to test its suitability. The Council welcomes partnership with local communities who would undertake development works themselves with the aid of a grant from the County Council. The provision and extension of a burial ground is subject to Planning Regulations. The Council where necessary can acquire land for a burial ground by C.P.O.
