Lawn Grave
Available at all three
cemeteries.
Level with the ground, with no curbs, and a headstone of limited
size approximately 3'x2'.
At Castle Green and Wombridge the headstone is surrounded by a
bark area to allow for ease of maintenance.
At Wellington the area in front of the headstone is turfed and
maintained by the council. However, in front of the headstone the
council can provide a slab for use as a base for memorials and
vases etc. The headstone can be bought from any of the licensed
masons (a list of which is available from Telford & Wrekin
Council) and is erected on a foundation at the head of the grave,
which is provided by the
stonemason. | |
Traditional Grave
Available at Castle
Green, Wellington and Wombridge Cemeteries.
This grave allows for a much more substantial type of memorial on
concrete landing which covers the area of the
grave. | |
Baby/infant and children's grave
Available at Castle Green and Wellington Cemeteries.
Castle Green and Wellington Cemeteries have designated areas for
the burial of baby and infants.
Castle Green also has an area for the burial of children.
In both cemeteries all the plots are of a lawn grave type, babies
being a quarter of the size of a full plot and children's (up to
the age of 12 years) half the size. Each grave may have a headstone
(21"x16") or a stone vase placed at the head of the
grave. | |
Garden of Remembrance Section for
Cremated Remains
Small headstone or vase.
Similar to the lawn grave but placed on a gravel border, although
the grave itself is smaller to accommodate the urn or caskets in
which the cremated remains are buried.
An individual small headstone (21"x16") or a stone vase may be
placed in the gravel area, immediately above the cremated remains
in Castle Green and Wellington cemeteries.
In Wombridge Cemetery a gravelled area is available for the burial
of cremated remains. You can place a small vase on the gravelled
area beneath the Wall of Remembrance. A Wall of Remembrance
is available in all three cemeteries for you to put up a stone or
brass plaque. | |
Family columbarium
These structures are placed above ground and consist of 18 units.
Each unit can hold up to four urns inside. Currently the
columbarium is only available at Wellington Cemetery. The lease
period for the Columbarium is 25 years.
