South Leverton Parish Council Burial Ground

In 1976 the Parish Council purchased a former allotment site from White's Farm for the purpose of a new Parish Council burial ground. Following the purchase the Council prepared the land and this culminated with the completion of the Memorial Wall of Rememberance in 1980 and bench installation in 1983.

Once the majority of plots in the Churchyard had been taken, the Parish Council took the decision to open the new burial ground in 2021. Over the winter of 2021/22 the Council members, Clerk, Village Warden, Litter Picker and local volunteers undertook several months of refurbishment work on the trees, hedges, removal of the derelict shed & bunker, removal of rubbish, fly-tipping, and the installation of two new benches, repairs to the memorial wall and a new parish bin. The first interments in the new burial ground took place in April 2022.
