IN ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT REQUIREMENTS THE CEMETERY IS CLOSED EXCEPT FOR BURIALS UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE.
Therefore we have had to make some key decisions about the way in which the cemetery is operating over the next few weeks so please note the following:
1. The cemetery office is closed except for telephone contact until further notice. This includes the toilets in the visitor centre.
2. We will continue to operate a funeral service but this must be dealt with through your funeral director.
3. The clocks go forward on Saturday 28th March and this usually signals an extension to the cemetery grounds opening hours. However please note that, until further notice, the cemetery grounds will only be open from 9am until 3.30pm on Monday to Friday. As per my message yesterday, during these hours you can still use the cemetery grounds for your daily exercise provided that you live close and follow government guidelines.
4. The cemetery grounds will be closed and the gates locked every Saturday and Sunday until further notice.
We appreciate that this is going to cause some inconvenience to visitors and we apologise that we have found it necessary to take these steps. We will resume normal service as soon as practicable.
