Strowan Woodland Cemetery

Description

Opened on March 11th 2006. Just an hour from Glasgow and Edinburgh, in the heart of beautiful Perthshire, lies Strowan Woodland Cemetery. The Cemetery overlooks the tranquil valley of the River Earn, a peaceful last resting place for loved ones.

The aim of the cemetery is to give families the option of a Greenfield Burial, using only environmentally friendly coffins such as Wicker, Bamboo or solid wood.

The graves are marked by the management, but no headstone or other form of marker is permitted on individual graves. This allows the natural environment to remain unchanged and the picturesque and peaceful setting of this area to be unaffected. The cemetery is managed to maintain the balance with nature.

To allow families to easily find a loved one’s grave the cemetery has a memorial board showing the grave locations.
