The Crematorium was established in 1971, within Oakley Wood, a site having natural beauty and giving an atmosphere of peace and tranquillity. There is an abundance of bird life in the grounds and quietness and patience are often rewarded by the sight of more timid species. Rabbits, grey squirrels, foxes, badgers, moles and muntjac deer are among the mammals that have made Oakley Woods their home.

It has been the constant endeavour of the Council to retain the character of the woodland setting. Restriction of memorials has, therefore, been necessary, and the planting of shrubs, trees and flowers by the public is not generally allowed.

The grounds encompass 21 acres, 7 acres of which have been set aside for a Woodland Garden of Remembrance.

Except in the Woodland Garden of Remembrance the only form of memorial permitted is the Book of Remembrance.

It is the Council’s objective that the whole of the grounds should accord with the original concept – that of a peaceful and permanent woodland.
