A new cemetery is set to be created in a Nottinghamshire village. A new cemetery is set to be created on greenbelt land off George's Lane, Calverton, into a traditional, natural and woodland burial ground, complemented with a facilities building and a car park.
The plan, which has been put forward by funeral directors A.W. Lymn, has been recommended for approval at Gedling Borough Council's planning committee on July 28. It would be the first cemetery owned by the group.
The site spans 27-acres, 17 of which will be used as burial space. If planning permission is granted a visual screen of native trees and shrubs will be planted as a barrier between the cemetery and the local golf course and residential buildings.
