Chairman’s Update
By Trevor Webster, Chairman of LRPC
Lindfield Burial Ground new ashes scattering memorial ground
The council currently owns a plot of land next to the Walstead Burial Ground in East Mascalls Lane and it is our aim to convert it into an ashes scattering memorial ground. This facility would be in addition to the ancient burial site and the ashes internment ground that we already offer at the Walstead Burial Ground. Our early thoughts are that we would like to see the new ground sympathetically landscaped with trees and shrubs to allow residents and visitors to apply to scatter the ashes of departed loved ones and to revisit as often as they wish in a peaceful environment. To enable us to apply for planning permission a professionally produced plan of the ground needs to be produced and submitted with our application. The council is currently hoping to work with a voluntary landscaper who would be able to contribute to this process. If you are interested and can help, please contact our Parish Clerk on clerk@ lindfieldrural-pc.org.uk
