Spring Lane Cemetery purchase a burial plot
Burial plot for the use of ashes only
When you purchase a burial plot, you will be issued with a Deed of Grant of Exclusive Right of Burial. This document needs to be kept in a safe place as you may need to provide it in the future. As the owner your permission will be required to open the plot at any time and to sign for any memorials placed on the plot. In the case of joint ownership, all owners will be required to give their consent. Up to a maximum of four people may be joint owners of the Exclusive Right of Burial, allowing them all the automatic right to be buried in the plot (space dependent) and have equal responsibilities for memorials etc.
