Memorabilia on graves and plots

We aim to create a peaceful, respectful place that is safe and appropriate for everyone. As well as your own feelings, we must also be sensitive to the wishes and feelings of all visitors.

Bereaved relatives often wish to remember their loved ones with messages, ornaments and memorabilia.

We respectfully ask that if you choose to leave memorabilia, it stays either within:

• the confines of the headstone base
• the kerb surround where there is one
• the grave plot itself

If you wish to place items on stakes, sticks or hooks, these cannot exceed 12″ in height.

These restrictions allow us to cut the grass and keep the grounds tidy.

Memorial Seats

The memorial seat is a traditionally styled seat with 100% recycled slats and cast aluminium seat ends to ensure the seat offers a long service life and includes a commemorative plaque.

If you are interested in purchasing a seat please contact cemeteries@weymouthtowncouncil.gov.uk
