FEES AND CHARGES 2008/2009 - WITH EFFECT FROM 1 APRIL 2008

All burial charges are trebled in price for non-Borough residents (except, at the discretion of the Bereavement Service Manager, former residents who were placed in an elderly persons home or with relatives outside of the Borough for the latter years of their life).

New Grave prices should be calculated by adding together the Exclusive Right of Burial Fee and the Interment Fee for the depth required. Charges are based on a coffin size 203cm (80ins) in length by 66cms (26ins) in width. Additional oversize charge: £80.00
