Am I allowed to smoke?
Yes we are happy for visitors to smoke but please take any cigarette ends with you, to ensure the site stays unspoiled.
Are children welcome?
Yes we are happy for visitors to bring children but please make sure an adult is caring for them at all times.
Am I allowed to bring my dog?
Yes you are, but please keep him on a lead at all times and clear up after him.
Can I plant something on the grave or leave some flowers?
Yes you can plant bulbs and seeds by a loved one’s grave, however please can you ensure that they are local, native woodland species. But do not leave ornaments or wired flowers, plants in pots or other unnatural items on graves for we will remove them.
If the grave is looking a bit untidy, am I allowed to tidy it up?
Do tidy up and trim the grasses on graves if you wish but please remember that Deerton is a natural burial ground not a lawned cemetery.
Nettles are part of the natural flora but we are endeavoring to keep
them out of the burial areas through cutting and pulling. Should you wish to
help us out, don’t forget to wear protective gloves!
Am I allowed to bring a picnic?
Yes feel free to sit on one of the benches with your drink and a sandwich
while you reflect and remember your loved ones. But remember to ‘take your litter home!’
