Understanding the stops

Northern entrance, administration and funeral hall

The suggested start is an unlocked pedestrian entrance. The administration is followed by the modern funeral hall on the hill, while a nearby information board helps visitors continue into the grounds.

Toilet and route south

One of the two free wheelchair-accessible toilets lies along the sequence. Plan breaks and the return so that you reach a permitted exit before seasonal closing time.

Celtic earthwork

The grove of lime trees marks a historic enclosure dating from around 500 BC. Stay on permitted paths and respect the quiet character of the place.

Wildflower meadow and bee hotel

Two named information boards explain ecological habitats within the cemetery landscape. They show how meadows and refuges sit alongside burial sections as part of the design.

Urn Wall 3

Urn Wall 3 is the final south-eastern stop in the selection. From here, the map indicates the neutrally numbered eastern entrances; the tour does not prescribe a fixed return route.

Visit respectfully

Remain on established paths, give funeral ceremonies space and keep conversations quiet. The tour is an orientation aid and replaces neither a grave reference nor individual directions from the administration.
