Cemeteries - Nelson cemetery
Location
On Walton Lane in Nelson.
Information
This cemetery has been open since 1895. It includes a chapel of rest for funeral services, and a Muslim burial section.
Burials
We offer vaults or walled graves within all our cemeteries, which are concrete or bricked chambers with space for two coffins. We need at least four working days notice for a vault and three for a walled grave before the burial.
Memorial wall
Ashes in a suitable container are placed into a niche in the wall. A green slate plaque is placed onto the niche with your chosen inscription.
Memorial trees
You can choose from 26 types of tree. Up to four lots of ashes can be buried underneath the tree. You can have a memorial plaque at the foot of the tree.
Ashes chambers
There are modern chambers just below ground which can hold up to four lots of ashes, making this an ideal family plot. Each chamber is covered with a black granite memorial stone with your chosen inscription.
