The Lairs:
For each lair, the surname of the purchaser is given. Lairs which had not been purchased before about 2021, or which are not available for sale, are not listed here. Lairs were frequently bought in pairs, sometimes in multiples. The information has been taken from a copy of the Cemetery Lair Plan kindly provided by Alan Reid.
The Gravestones:
For most of the stones, the text here is not a word-for-word transcript. There are only a few photographs here. However, Find A Grave has photos of nearly all the stones.
Lair purchasers and listings given up to early 2022. These pages will not be continually updated.
