Memorial Tree & Plot Care
The woodland will be maintained and cared for with primary regard to its longevity and natural appearance, allowing the trees, wild flowers and bulbs to flourish.
The estate will be using a buried microchip with a unique signature and an indefinite transmission life to identify each plot. Plots may be visually marked, if so desired, using small wooden or natural stone plaques placed near the ground so as not to interfere with maintenance. Plaques may be purchased from ourselves.
Membership Scheme
Craufurdland Woods uses a membership scheme, which entitles members to a plot within the woodlands measuring 10ft by 6ft.
Coffins used within the “Woods” must be ecologically friendly, either cane, pine or cardboard. We have a selection of these available.
