The National Memorial Gardens 2.png)
The National Memorial Gardens is the only national final resting place in the whole country for any member of the British public, together with memorials for well known Britons such as TV celebrities, sports personalities, and even royals.
In particular, an Ash Burial plot in The National Memorial Gardens is available to anyone for themselves and/or for members of their family.

The National Memorial Gardens are situated in the stunning 350 acre park grounds of the English Heritage Grade 1 listed stately home of Lilford Hall located right in the middle of the country, and more specifically in the 250 years old Formal Gardens of The Lilford Estate. |
We are finding that many people are finding it popular to arrange for splitting of ashes, one set for burial at The National Memorial Gardens, and the other set for burial by their family closer to their original home. |

Our philosophy is that we celebrate and hold in remembrance all people who's ashes are buried at The National Memorial Gardens. To this end, we have set up a 'cloud' and physical Remembrance House in which the life story of each person is recorded in perpetuity.
The National Memorial Gardens is located in the grounds of The Lilford Estate which is the ancestral home of Robert Browne the founder of the Pilgrims Fathers that sailed to the USA on the Mayflower.
