We are pleased to announce that the first stage of our renovations within Queens Road Cemetery has been completed. We aim to make this space an area of beauty within the town
whilst upholding the local wildlife and ecosystem. The area had been overgrown for some time so we felt it important to restore this fascinating historical feature within our town.

We have separated the sections within the cemetery for us to distinguish the history of Queen’s Road. This allows us to restore correctly upholding the historical element of this green space. There are several notable figures buried in these grounds that may be of interest to our residents.

Please note that all the work completed within the cemetery is done so with extreme care. Any contractors have to comply with the regulations and expectations in place for working in
such a precious piece of land. All progress is monitored via our Amenities and Tourism Committee and regular updates can be found in the reports and minutes on our website.

Below are some pictures of our current progress.
