Parish Church Ashes Burials

The churchyard  reached capacity and ceased burials in the 1930s apart from in family plots but ashes continue to be scattered or buried. Whilst some ashes were buried in unmarked spots, much work was done in the mid-1970/80s to clear and level the area between the church and the river to create a Garden of Remembrance.

Here ashes have been interred since 1984 and memorial tablets mark the spots. The location of these memorial tablets (at the end of 2021) can be seen by clicking on the download button at the foot of this page.

Photographs of the tablets and their inscriptions can be found below
