You can't buy a grave itself, but instead the right to use it for 50 years. You can renew your ownership in multiples of ten years up to 50 years.

The cost of a grave plot depends on various factors, for example the type of plot and the depth of the grave.

If the grave owner dies

If the grave owner has died, you must transfer the ownership of the grave to a living owner before you arrange any further burials in the grave.

You also need to transfer ownership to a living owner to erect a new memorial or carry out any additional works on the grave.

It costs £108 to transfer ownership.
