Our Cemeteries

We have the following four cemeteries in the borough which have a number of different faith and dedicated sections:

• Bybrook Cemetery
• Canterbury Road Cemetery
• Tenterden Cemetery
• Willesborough Cemetery

There are also woodland burial areas at Bybrook and Tenterden cemeteries.

Opening hours

Our cemeteries are open to visitors every day. This includes weekends and all public holidays (including Christmas and Boxing Day).

Mondays to Saturdays: 7:30am-9:00pm or sunset, whichever is the earliest.

Sundays and Public Holidays: 8:00am–9:00pm or sunset, whichever is the earliest.

Outside of these hours, the cemeteries are closed and secured.

Dog walking

We ask that if you take your dog into our cemeteries that they are kept under control. Please keep dogs on a lead and ensure you clean up after them.

Parking

Please park on the roadways within the cemetery and allow space for other vehicles to pass. Do not park on any grass.
