Can we take a moment, in this special year, to welcome everyone who views our web site and visits the cemetery. Please spread the word.  Interest in the cemetery has swelled of late and we are so pleased to be able to share our love of this amazing cemetery with others. Can we remind you that there are no permanent ground staff at Brandwood End and we share them with several other cemeteries, but we can assure you that they do what they can with the time and resources allotted to them and every member of the ground staff has a love of the cemetery that goes beyond their ‘job’. There will always be issues relating to this large site of 53 acres, which used to have 16 permanent gardeners in its hey day, but with the co operation of the public, the Friends, Bereavements Staff and BCC grounds maintenance we hope we can keep this as a welcoming and safe space for those that visit.
