Fees you must pay

  • For an attended or unattended burial funeral, the burial fee* (in this local area, the typical cost of the burial fee for local residents is £480)

  • For a new grave, you will also need to pay for the plot; for an existing grave with a memorial in place, you may need to pay a removal/replacement fee. In addition, the cemetery may charge a number of other fees.

  • For an attended cremation funeral, the cremation fee** (in this local area, the typical cost of a cremation for local residents is £936).

 

Please discuss any specific religious, belief-based and/or cultural requirements that you have with the funeral director.

 

*This fee (which is sometimes called the interment fee) is the charge made for digging and closing a new grave, or for reopening and closing an existing grave.

**In England, Wales and Northern Ireland, you will usually need to pay doctors’ fees as well. This is the charge for two doctors to sign the Medical Certificates for Cremation.
