The stratton memorial garden and burial ground

The Stratton Memorial Garden and Burial Ground ...... At the end of the day, we all want the very best for our departed family members and friends.

People have different visions of what is right for a particular person, and equally, the be­reaved, have their own circumstances to con­sider. We hope the Stratton Memorial Garden and the range of burial options within will assist in meeting everyone's needs.


Overlooked by Whiteleaf Cross on the nearby wooded hillside, the gardens provide a restful setting for those just wishing to get away from the rush of life.


To enable the Memorial Garden to evolve into a place of beauty, memorials, if permitted, are lim­ited in size according to the area chosen for inter­ment, and grave plots will be grassed and form part of the lawns. We would like to encourage people to place their flowers in nearby planting areas, where provided, along with a marker if they wish to provide a focal point. Flowers left on a grave should be of a temporary nature only and will be allowed to remain for a limited period fol­lowing the funeral, as if left in the growing season will have to be moved for grass cutting. To allow the leaving of items, such as vases, on the lawns on a permanent basis would create a littered ef­fect, as well as being a hazard and a mainte­nance problem.


Because the areas of the gardens cater for differ­ent tastes, it is very important, when choosing the location of your plot, to ensure that you are aware of what is allowed in each area, so that you will not be disappointed to learn that you cannot have a particular kind of memorial in one area, or that another area does not cater for planting next to the memorial. Please check the conditions at­tached to each area and ensure that these are acceptable to you before making your choice, as it is too late to change your mind once the funeral has taken place.
