Cemeteries

Removal of flowers

Following a burial, the floral tributes are left on the grave for two weeks, then they will be removed by cemetery staff.

Christmas wreaths may be placed in the cemeteries from 1 December and will remain until the first week of February.

The graves in the cemeteries are lawn graves and are turfed between nine and twelve months after a burial. Planting within the grave space area is not allowed as this will interfere with maintenance. This also includes the planting of trees and shrubs within the headborder.
