Cemeteries

Government guidance states that people living in a Tier 4 area can travel to attend a funeral or related event, or visit a burial ground or remembrance garden. Please also consider Government guidance that being permitted to do so and being appropriate to do so, are different considerations.

We are responsible for four cemeteries based in Clacton-on-Sea (Burrs Road), Kirby Cross (Kirby Road), Dovercourt  (Near Main Road) and Walton-on-the-Naze (Walton Road). 

Normal Opening Times:
Monday to Friday - 7.30 am to 4.30 pm

Saturday, Sundays and Bank Holidays - 10.00 am - 4.30 pm

The above times are for vehicular access; pedestrian access is available 24 hours.

Please note that Kirby Cross Cemetery gates are open all the time.
