Our list of
guided walks
has been updated through to September 2009.
There are revised opening
times for the cemetery: Daily from
7am to 5pm (Winter: October to March); from 7am to 7pm (Summer: April to
September); Glades of Remembrance (8am - 5pm).
All our guided walks now start from the
entrance to the Glades of Remembrance, adjacent to the Cemetery
Office. There is a separate entrance to the Glades, with its own
lay-by, off Cemetery Pales. Parking is available inside the entrance.
Refreshments and toilet facilities will usually be available.
There are new arrangements for all private guided walks in the cemetery,
for which see
this link on the Company's Website.

The Society urgently needs to raise funds for emergency repairs to the
Columbarium,
which is listed Grade II.
Through your
generous support and donations we have raised half
of the £7,000 needed for remedial work. We have
another year to raise the remainder in order to be awarded the £2,000
retrospective grant from the Surrey Historic Buildings Trust.
Further donations welcome - please contact
Margaret Hobbs (address below).
Emergency repairs to the Drake mausoleum have been
completed - photographs of the finished roof
have been posted here
