Connecting with memories, watching the world drift past. A peaceful moment on a memorial bench, breathing deeply and taking time out where nature holds the silence. 🌿🕊️

A bench becomes an anchor, memories move like clouds, and for a moment there’s nothing to do but breathe, be present, and let the quiet wash over you.

What a wonderful wassail at Mayfields Orchard! 🌳🍎
The sun was shining, the apple trees were glowing, and our voices filled the orchard with song as we celebrated the coming harvest. Visitors enjoyed homemade apple bakes, warming homemade soup, and cozy lamb’s wool, perfect for a crisp winter day.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us, and to Pomona Orchard for bringing music, cheer, and community spirit. What a joyful day to celebrate nature, tradition, and good company!

❄️ Safety Update ❄️

Although our woodland burial ground is open, the recent icy weather has made the grounds unsafe. For everyone’s safety, access to the grounds is temporarily closed until conditions improve and the ice has thawed.

If you need access for any reason, the office is open. Please speak to a member of staff, who will be happy to assist you further.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

From all of us, we wish you and your loved ones a Merry Christmas and gentle festive season.
Whether your days are filled with celebration, rest, or time spent remembering someone special, we hope this season brings peace, comfort, and care.
