Mayfields Woodland Burial Ground - Brochure

Woodland burials What is a woodland burial? Woodland burial was once seen as a niche alternative, however today many people are looking for a more environmentally friendly method of burial. We offer a dignified service that is provided within a natural setting. You will not see rows of headstones, just beautiful countryside. Graves can be marked with bronze plaques. Some woodland burial sites choose to bury between mature trees and whilst this may look immediately appealing this could destroy existing delicate surface roots, which can impact on the long term health of the trees. Our philosophy is to create a new wood through the planting of native trees, thereby adding to the country’s tree stock. The native trees planted provide an ideal habitat for a variety of wildlife, helping to sustain the surrounding environment.
