Our settings
At our Midlands sites, you can choose from either a woodland or wildflower meadow setting. Our site in County Durham is an established woodland. Wildflower meadow burials take place all year round. Woodland burials are also year-round, except for tree planting and burial of ashes at our Midlands sites, which take place between November and February.
Woodland
Woodland burials involve entwining legacy with nature through planting a tree (at our Midlands sites) or being buried beneath an established tree (at our Blue House sites) as a lasting memorial. Our woodlands are peaceful places to visit, and it’s lovely seeing the trees inch taller over time. Adjacent plots aren’t possible within our growing woodlands at our Midlands sites due to growing and changing tree roots, but are able to be reserved at our Blue House site within the mature woodland.
Wildflower Meadow
Wildflower meadows are home to vital insects and other pollinators like butterflies and our increasingly endangered bees. We place plaques instead of trees in these colourful, changing spaces. Adjacent plots are possible here. Please note we are unable to offer meadow burial or interment at our site in County Durham.
Meet Your Ketton Site Manager
Emma Stafford is delighted to be the site manager at our Ketton site, having come to us following a previous stint as a funeral arranger. If you arrive at the site and have any questions or need help of any kind, she’s the one to look for!
Services we offer at Tithe Green Ketton
Natural burial
(from £1,975)
This means burying a person in a biodegradable coffin using only natural materials, either within woodland (a tree and plaque are planted alongside) or a wildflower meadow (a plaque is placed).
Natural interment of ashes
(from £875)
This means burying ashes in the ground in a biodegradable container. As with our main natural burial approach, at our Midlands sites this can be within woodland (with a tree and plaque) or a wildflower meadow (plaque). At our County Durham site, ashes are interred beneath established trees in our woodland (with a plaque).
Direct cremation + natural interment of ashes
(from £1,975)
This means enlisting us to arrange an unattended, direct cremation and burial of ashes in the ground in a biodegradable container. As with all approaches, burial of ashes can be attended or unattended.
Memorial tree without burial
(from £750)
This means planting a tree in someone’s memory without a burial taking place. This too can be attended or unattended. All trees are accompanied by a welsh slate plaque with a bespoke inscription.
What to expect when visiting Tithe Green Ketton
From the car park, you’ll have no trouble finding your way into our main site. You don’t have to be visiting a grave or memorial to spend time with us. Everyone – including dogs on leads! – is always welcome to just walk around and enjoy the beautiful surroundings.
With woodland and wildflower meadows to explore, it’s a fantastic place to visit, and we see many people who just come for a morning or afternoon walk.
Most of the time, you shouldn’t have too many problems finding your way around the site. However, if you’re visiting us during winter or soon after heavy rain, it might be a good idea to bring boots or a spare pair of shoes, because it can get muddy.
It’s always worth keeping your eyes peeled when you visit, because you never know what wildlife you might see. We get lots of insects, including vital pollinators like butterflies and bees, as well as a wide variety of birds – including birds of prey, who are probably on the lookout for the small mammals we also attract!
