Memorials & Trees

Memorial Icon

  Memorials

For many, it is important to have the name of the person written and recorded, especially as there are no markers on the individual graves in the natural burial meadow.

Welsh Slate memorial plaques inscribed with the name, year of birth and year of death are available in the Wild Cherry Scatter Area. We will also be offering oak memorial plaques in the memorial shelter once this has been constructed. 

If you would like a Welsh Slate Memorial please  go to our forms and prices page and download a Memorial Application form and send it to us.

Memorial rights will be granted for a period of 25 years after which they are renewable. The renewal of memorial rights in the future will provide an important contribution to the upkeep of the shelter and other maintenance at the burial ground after income from the sale of rights of burial has ceased.

Memorial Tree Planting

We can offer tree dedications and memorial tree planting with wild flower scatter around the edge of the burial meadow, which will help provide shade for the grazing animals and create homes for animals improving biodiversity and encouraging wildlife to visit.
​
These will be protected by wooden tree guards to prevent sheep from nibbling the trees and eating the flowers. Memorial plaques can included on the tree guard which will be displayed for an initial period of ten years (due to the projected lifespan of the materials). You will have the option to renew/extend the periods at the end of this term.

If you would like to plant or dedicate please go to the forms and prices page and download a Tree For Life application form and send it to us. 

If you wish to scatter ashes at the base of your tree you will also need to complete an ashes scattering form.  Please go to the forms and prices page and download an ashes scattering form and send it to us.

​Mementos and plants at the burial ground

In order to conserve the natural habitat and protect bereaved families, graves must not be gardened and nothing should be placed or planted and no seeds should be scattered on the graves without consent from the Custodian.  She can advise on native species and a supplier. Our aim is to to keep everything as natural as possible to maintain and enhance the local biodiversity.​

Anything that appears without our consent will be removed. Please make sure that this is right for you before you commit to the burial ground. It will not suit everyone.

Wild Flowers

Native wildflower seeds may be scattered on the grave and the surrounding area after the burial, however animals do graze within the field so please be aware these may be nibbled by our local woolly residents when they graze. We can let you know when we are intending to bring the sheep in so you can decide if you would like to scatter wildflower seeds. To ensure these are safe for our animals we ask that you purchase these from us, or check with the custodian that you have a safe mix. We may also be having special days where we invite families to come and scatter wildflower seeds with us. These events will be updated on our Facebook page so please feel to follow or like us to be kept up to date with any events that are happening.
