Additional notesCemeteries Bereavement Services provides burial facilities at four cemeteries: Weymouth Cemetery, Abbotsbury Road, Weymouth. Melcombe Regis Cemetery, Newstead Road, Weymouth. Wyke Regis Cemetery, Wyke Regis, Weymouth. Portland Cemetery, Weston Road, Portland. The oldest cemetery is the Melcombe Regis cemetery, which was opened in 1856. All the original registers for the above cemeteries are held at the Weymouth Crematorium office and can be inspected by appointment. All the above-mentioned cemeteries have land still available for burial. Part of the Weymouth, Melcombe Regis and Portland cemeteries have areas set aside for the burial of stillborn children and infants. There is provision for the burial of cremated remains at all cemeteries. Bereavement Services has recently adopted the charter for the Bereaved, which incorporates 33 rights concerning burial and cremation services and memorial regulations. A wide variety of memorial types are available in different cemeteries with kerbs allowed in all cemeteries. It is important to realise that along with the rights the bereaved also have responsibilities, for ensuring that they comply with the regulations that have been adopted for the benefit and safety of all who visit and work in cemeteries. The responsibility for the maintenance and safety of the memorial erected is that of the family. To aid this the authority insists that all memorials are erected in accordance with the code of working practice compiled by NAMM (National Association of Monumental Masons).
