Churchyard Rules and Regulations

In an attempt to manage the churchyard and to preserve its character as a communal space for reflection and contemplation, the Church Council wishes to remind the public of the following rules.

*Plastic flowers are not permitted. Silk flowers however are permitted.

* One or two items of a sentimental and personal nature are permitted so long as they are restricted to the headstone only.

*Floral tributes must be restricted to the headstone only.

*Photo-plaques are not permitted.

*No kerbs, railings, posts, chains, or chippings can be included in any memorial.

* Nothing may be placed on, or planted in, the grave area.

*Remembrance Day poppies and Christmas wreaths are permitted but must be removed within 2 months.

*The foundation slab must be kept clear at all times to allow the grassed area to be maintained by the PCC in keeping with the rest of the churchyard.

Anything which is deemed to contravene these regulations will be removed by the PCC without notice.
