    Caitriona’s address is:
    Victoria House, Glasbury, Hereford, HR3 5NR. Tel/Fax: 01497 847 142
  • Please note the maximum sizes of the marker stones, on no account may any marker stone or plaque be larger than this. (The size is restricted by our planning permission.)
  • All designs for memorial stones must be approved by the management of Humber Woodland of Remembrance, before the stone is commissioned. There are very strict planning restrictions on the size and type of stone, which may be placed at Humber Woodland.

Any tree planted at Humber Woodland of Remembrance must be ordered through the management. Should a family wish to supply a tree themselves, this must be after consultation with the Management. A charge will also be made for such trees.

Trees will be 200 – 250cm tall. Prices include a stake and rabbit guard as well as the obtaining, planting and maintaining of each tree. We guarantee to replace any tree that dies within ten years of being planted.

In the case of more than one plot being purchased together, it is advisable to have a ‘joint’ or even a family memorial tree, to be planted at the time of the last plot being used. This will enable a single tree to have plenty of space to grow into a large specimen, and will mean that once it has been planted, no digging will disturb its roots. In the meantime, plots can be marked by a small, carved memorial stone and by planting wild flowers.

Families may be involved in the planting of trees, if they wish.

Please remember, nothing may be placed or planted on or near a grave at Humber Woodland of Remembrance, without first referring to the Management. This is to ensure that we preserve the wild and natural feel of the site, and also that we comply with our planning permission.
