The majority of cemeteries today are lawn cemeteries where a small block of concrete is set in the lawn and an inscribed plaque is set on to it. This enables much easier maintenance and usually a much tidier appearance. Cemeteries have a day a week on which they remove all the flowers. This is necessary for the lawns to be cared for correctly. Except for immediately after a burial all flowers must be placed in the prescribed receptacles which are provided. This promotes uniformity and prevents the cemetery owner becoming liable for breakages.

Cemetery plots may be pre-purchased. Our funeral director or local council can arrange that for you or a plot may be purchased "at need". Generally a first interment is made to eight feet and allows a prescribed consolidating time fora second burial at six feet.
An inscription on a plaque may be arranged after the burial. |
