Guideline Leaflet PC07: Burial Grounds 


Many older Baptist churches have their own burial grounds.  These may be either part of the chapel grounds or a separate plot some distance away.  This leaflet provides guidance on burial grounds generally, their maintenance, burial records, War Graves, moving headstones, health and safety, building on a burial ground and other related matters.
