Fees and Charges

For those wishing to have someone laid to rest in one of our cemeteries, there are two main fees that need to be taken into consideration; first is the fee for the purchase of a grave space and the second for the burial itself.

  • For non-residents of the borough, all fees (excluding ashes scatterings) need to be multiplied by three
  • If the deceased was living within the borough at any time during the 5 years prior to their death, we can apply the resident fee with provided proof of address.
  • Residency of the borough can be checked at Check your Council Tax band - GOV.UK
  • Fees are charged after the submission of the required forms and on completion of booking.
