Our cemeteries provide families with a peaceful and tranquil place to pay their respects to loved ones who have passed away.

Situated throughout the UK, our cemeteries play an important role in the communities in which they are situated, and it is not unusual for generations of families to be buried close together.

After many years in operation the cemetery remains a key part of the local community and staff often help visitors to trace their family history using the handwritten grave registers.
