Woodland Burial Company

Woodland Burial Company Woodland Burial Company provides lasting, personal and private resting places for your loved one. Hope you like it dad.

The Woodland Burial Company are proud of our approach to the difficult subject that is the death of a loved one. We believe that we should all try and leave the world a better place than when we arrived in it. Through the provision of our woodland interment plots for cremated remains and full cadaver committals, we give the opportunity to leave a legacy that will benefit our native woodlands and wildlife for generations to come, whilst also providing a tranquil and peaceful setting for the memories and mourning of those left in the present. From our own experiences of bereavement, we have created what we felt we needed at that time, delivered in a way we would of appreciated. The company follows the ecological ethics and teachings of Granville Graham.

Please be careful when visiting the woods during this artic blast.

Wear appropriate clothing, especially boots or shoes. Luckily the layer of pine needles and general coverage means our paths are fairly protected. However, your journey to and from the woodland may need some extra thought.

Keep safe!

Further Update: to ensure access for families at this often challenging time of year, we will now be dealing with the fallen tree first thing tomorrow morning.

Update: the tree will need more than one person to move it. We will have two staff attending on Saturday 27th. It’s possible another woodland owner, or Woodlands For Sale, will clear it before then, but that is out of our hands.

We have been made aware of an obstruction on the main walk down to Walton Woods, which our families use to reach Granvilles Wood. Our site manager has kindly gone in on his day off to assess the situation, and we will update as and when we can.

Huge thanks to Jay - we are lucky to have you.

Such a beautiful funeral in the woodland recently.

Floral tributes without oasis, glitter, fake berries and plastic looking wonderful and creating a unique ceremony for someone special.

Woodland burial can be very traditional, or not. It allows you to create a personal way of saying goodbye.
