Cemeteries

We have two cemeteries that have consecrated and non-consecrated land:

  • Castle Street in Wallingford
  • Coopers Pightle in Kidmore End

We have new graves available at the above sites and you can buy the ‘right of burial’ in advance – this is known as ‘exclusive rights of burial’.

Please be aware it is triple charges for exclusive rights if you live outside of South Oxfordshire District Council.
