In accordance with National Park policy Rydal Estate do not permit individual memorials on their land. Plastic creates hazards to livestock & wildlife & many flowers & plants are toxic to animals.
There is however a Millenium Garden at the church, the Quiet Garden at Rydal Hall & the Celebration Path (click here) all of which are freely available to those wishing to spend quiet time in reflection & contemplation. A website search will reveal the many planting schemes, both nearby & further afield, which provide an alternative for those wishing to create a permanent memorial to loved ones.
Should you wish to make a donation to the Rydal Village Society a Memorial Page has been created on this website for those wishing to celebrate loved ones. Donations ( minimum £10.00) will be used to support the continued hosting of this website & also contribute towards general village maintenance & the church Millenium Garden all of which rely on charitable donations as we receive no external funding.
