Bentley Cemetery is a modern, multi-faith burial ground, committed to serving our diverse community with compassion, dignity and care. We believe every person deserves a resting place that honours both their individual legacy and their cultural traditions. Set within gently landscaped grounds, the cemetery blends contemporary needs with timeless values. Carefully planned open green spaces, quiet areas for reflection and accessible pathways combine to create a setting that is tranquil, welcoming and inclusive for all.

Many of our graves can be reserved in advance, giving families the comfort of knowing loved ones can be laid to rest together. If you would like to find out more about burial plots at Bentley Cemetery, our dedicated team is here to guide and support you every step of the way.

Lawn graves are set within well-maintained grassy surroundings, with space for a headstone of your choice at the head of the plot. They offer a simple, peaceful and timeless setting for remembrance.
Traditional graves allow for a full kerb set (a headstone with a stone surround ) alongside personalised memorial designs. A classic and enduring choice that can be tailored to reflect the individuality of your loved one.
These gardens offer exclusive grave spaces in a premium location within our memorial grounds, providing a sense of privacy and permanence. Bespoke memorial designs are available, allowing you to create a truly personal tribute.
A memorial is a lasting place to pause, reflect and remember, and it should feel as unique as the person it honours. Our memorial specialists will talk you through the options, from traditional headstones and kerb sets to fully bespoke tributes, so that you can find something that feels right.
Memorials can also be pre-purchased, giving you peace of mind that your wishes will be met, while taking the emotional and financial pressure off your loved ones.

Since opening in 2015, Bentley Cemetery has become a trusted place of remembrance. Our thoughtfully designed chapel welcomes guests of all faiths and beliefs for funeral and memorial services. The chapel is heated in winter and air conditioned in summer, and offers comfortable seating for up to 99 guests. For larger funeral services there is room for an additional 100 guests to stand. We have a modern sound system available to play music of your choice, and there is space for singers and musicians too.
