Ludford Park Meadow

Description

Ludford Park Meadow of Remembrance is a green burial ground in a beautiful and tranquil wild flower meadow near Ludlow in Shropshire.

The freehold site is owned and managed by Lin & Roger Dalton who can assist with planning or pre-arranging a green funeral where natural biodegradable products are encouraged and various options and choices are available.

All burials are in single plots, ensuring the grave is never disturbed once a burial has taken place. Plots are available for burial of ashes or alternatively ashes may be scattered in an area along the hedgerow. Families have the option to reserve adjoining plots, subject to availability and in some areas it is possible to have family plots with a mix of burial and cremation plots.

Religious Service, Civil Funeral, Humanist Service or no service, the choice is yours. Individual plots can be consecrated if wished.

Funerals can be carried out without a funeral director. All graves are hand dug. However, graves can only be dug out and filled in under the supervision of a qualified grave digger.

You may have a permanent memorial stone laid flat in the ground in a style of your choice up to a maximum size of 15 ins square. The choice of stone mason is entirely yours.

Although a stone marker is not possible for scattering of ashes, a limited amount of memorial shrubs and small plaques are available in designated areas.

Cut flowers may be placed in the vases provided in the Area of Remembrance. Posies, arrangements and potted plants may also be placed in this area.
