Llanrhos Cemetery extension work begins

Llanrhos Cemetery extension work begins

Work has begun to extend Llanrhos Cemetery off Conway Road, lasting for four months.

The lawn cemetery will extend into land between Conway Road and A470, directly south of the current grounds. The new extension will allow for double and single grave plots plus burial plots for cremated remains.

The work also involves a lagoon and new drainage, landscaping and biodiversity features including bat boxes and bird boxes. New paths will link from the current grounds to the new space.

Construction vehicles will access the site via Crogfryn Road. The public footpath running through the site has been closed while the work is carried out, but the work will not affect access to the cemetery grounds.

Cllr Goronwy Edwards, Cabinet Member for Environment, Roads and Facilities – Infrastructure said: “We know that Llanrhos Cemetery is appreciated as a peaceful place to remember loved ones. This extension will ensure that continues, with burial spaces for the future.”
