DM52: Burial Space

  • The Council will protect all existing burial spaces and seek to re-use existing spaces for new burial spaces where appropriate.
  • In determining any application for the provision of new burial spaces, applications should demonstrate the following:
    • The provision meets the burial requirements of the various ethnic and religious groups within the Borough;
    • The spaces are located within close proximity to the communities served by spaces to reduce the travelling distance to visit the deceased; and
    • Any affect on the water table and the possibility of flooding or water logging caused by the new provision is minimised.
