Can I place cremated remains in a gravesite plot?
Yes. Cremated remains may be placed in any of the available gravesite options, not just being limited to the Memorial Wall or Garden. Contact the cemetery for availability and costs.
Can cremated remains or burials be interred in existing relatives’ gravesites?
Yes. This is a possibility if there is room in the existing gravesite. The Holder of The Right of Interment to the burial site (or if that person is the deceased, their executor, administrator, or authorised person) is the only person who has the authority to inter ashes of a deceased person in the gravesite.
Where a person who is not the Holder of the Right and has no proof that they are acting on behalf of the Holder of the Right, or the original Holder cannot be contacted (i.e. they are overseas or they are deceased), the Trust will require appropriate documentation which may include a Statutory Declaration in addition to the completed application form.
Trust may be willing to accept a Statutory Declaration from the applicant, in addition to the completed application form.
Contact the cemetery for details, forms, and costs.
Who may place a memorial on a gravesite?
The Holder of The Right of Interment to the burial site (or if that person is the deceased, their executor, administrator, or authorised person) is the only person who has the authority to place a memorial on a burial site or cremation memorial site. Contact the cemetery first as prior approval will be required.
Where a person who is not the Holder of the Right and has no proof that they are acting on behalf of the Holder of the Right or the original Holder cannot be contacted (i.e. they are overseas or they are deceased), the Trust may be willing to accept a Statutory Declaration from the applicant, in addition to the completed application form.
