Many people are unaware of the fact that you can bury a body in your garden, a loophole used by many if not all Green/woodland burial sites.
The rules are:
1, a lawful certificate of the cause of death, they must register their death with the Registrar of Births, Deaths and Marriages.
2, a body comes within the definition of "clinical waste" and as such cannot be disposed of except under the provisions of the Control of Pollution Act 1974 and the Environment Protection Act 1990, in other words not within certain distances of water sources etc...
3, you must own or have permission to use private land, it must also be added to the title deeds of the house, better to shock a prospective buyer in writing before they buy than scare them shitless as they dig their new swimming pool.
Of course, digging a six-foot deep hole can be a nuisance, especially for the bone idle or elderly. We offer a domestic grave-digging service if your garden has good access we can use one of our fleet of grave excavators for only £150. If you require a hand-dug grave this can be arranged for only £350 or so, depending on the soil, you really can't go wrong, you will even get the chance to meet sub under vicar Brian and find out why we can't stand the twat.
If you wish to erect a headstone larger than a standard garage you will require planning permission from the council, they like any excuse to get your money, so that'll bugger up any ideas of getting a lodger in. |
