Woodland Valley natural burial ground, Warren Road, Woodingdean, Brighton

Set on the edge of the city overlooking the sea and the South Downs in Woodingdean, Woodland Valley has been designed to create a meadow and woodland burial ground for interment and cremated remains.

A return to nature

Natural burial is for people looking for a more environmentally-friendly method of burial, rather than a grave with a traditional headstone.

The cemetery is divided into sections with all of the grave spaces accurately recorded on maps. Burial plots and cremated remains plots are both available. Up to two sets of remains can be buried in a cremated remains plot. Alternatively you can choose to scatter cremated remains in either our Sea View or Woodland Glade scattering areas.

The areas have been planned to recreate an eco-friendly environment and provide important environmental benefits for the encouragement and protection of wildlife. Find out about conservation at Woodland Valley.
