Cemetery Records
All interments have to be recorded by Law in both Burial Registers and Grave Registers. These are public records and are available for inspection by appointment or alternatively we will be pleased to look up information for you. NB: There may be a small fee payable depending on the information which needs to be checked.

Registering a death and planning a funeral can be difficult in times of high emotion. We hope that the pages here may help you during these difficult times.
