2. Types of burial plots

The cemetery comprises of 18 sections with burial options for traditional graves, lawn graves, cremated remains and a children’s section. You are also able to select a specific plot for immediate or future interments, subject to availability and your requirements.

Traditional graves

Traditional graves cover the entire plot, so you are allowed to erect kerbstones or enclosures the full length and width of the grave space. Traditional graves allow for the planting of flowers and shrubs depending on the type of memorial. Cremated remains as well as coffins may be interred in this type of grave.

Lawn graves

Graves on lawn sections are only allowed to use the first three feet from the back of the headstone in which to plant bedding or shrubs. The remainder of the grave is maintained as lawn and mown at the Council’s expense. Cremated remains as well as coffins may be interred in this type of grave.

Child graves

There is a dedicated children’s section at Redstone Cemetery. There traditional graves are half the size of a normal grave space and are only for the interment of children.

Cremated remains memorial schemes

A number of cremation memorial schemes have been introduced to meet individual requirements. These include various engraved granite tablets, memorial trees and pergola memorial roses. Please contact the Cemeteries Manager for more information.
