Humber Woodland of Remembrance, Leominster, Herefordshire


 

Regional Winner

in

The People's Awards for the best Natural Burial Ground in the UK 2018, 2019 and 2021

and Regional Runner up in 2023 and 2024

Humber Woodland of Remembrance is set in open countryside, four miles east of Leominster. The beautiful new woodland provides a peaceful setting, where families may choose the plot where their loved one will be buried. Additional native trees or wild flowers are being planted on the graves, as burials take
place. Many families have held the funeral of their loved one at the graveside, or in a clearing in the centre of the site, where sunlight filters through the trees and they can take all the time they need.
