Resting Woods received planning consent in August 2024 to create our vision. We have now completed the archaeological survey, which showed that the medieval town of Wainfleet did not extend to our field. This has meant we have been able to obtain the Councils sign off to proceed with the construction. At present we are working on the entrance and car-park. These should take shape during March and we will hopefully get grass seeding, pathways and landscaping done in March too.
We plan to build suitable parking, pathways and a reflections building to allow families to gather for small services and peaceful reflection. We will also be sowing native grasslands and wild flowers to prepare the area for woodland creation.
Our paperwork and back of house structures are starting to come together too. To aid this we have joined the Association of Natural Burial Grounds, this associations leads industry standards for green burial sites and helps us to set up out site for the long term and to good standards of practice.
Our hope is to be ready and open for Spring 2025.
We will soon be in a position to offer plot reservation as we now have confidence of delivering construction and the planning conditions have been met. We need to await the highways connection before we can undertake a burial.
