The planting of shrubs and trees within the grave space is not permitted and may be removed by the Council.

Grass cutting will be carried out by the Council at a frequency determined by them and the weather conditions.

There are 3 sections to the Garden of Remembrance. The original Garden of Remembrance is a lawned area and cremated remains are unidentifiable. There is a walled area to accommodate single or double wall memorial plaques as approved by the Council. The Flower Bed and The Hedge Row have clearly identifiable burial plots for cremated remains and any accompanying plaques must be approved and be of regulation size and composition.

No urns are permitted for interments in the original Garden of Remembrance. All interments must be loose cremated remains.

All planting within the Garden of Remembrance is to be carried out by the Council, unless otherwise authorised.

51. Cremated remains may be interred in caskets or other approved containers, or may be poured into the requisite opening in the Garden of Remembrance or in a conventional grave in the cemetery. In each case an EROB will be required. There is no facility for “scattering” cremated remains.

52. The burial of the remains of animals is not permitted in the Cemetery.

Fees for all cemetery services will be determined by the Council annually to take effect from 1st April each year.

When setting the fee schedule the Council may choose to charge different rates for parishioners and non-parishioners. In order to determine which fees to charge, the Council will use the last permanent address of the deceased. In the case of a former resident who has lived in the parish of Crowborough for a least five years immediately before moving to a residential, care or nursing home outside Crowborough, the Parishioner rate will apply for their first 5 years in the home; after this period the Non-Parishioner rate will apply.

All fees are payable in advance to the Council, except in the case of Funeral Directors dealing continuously with the Council, when payment is rendered monthly.
