Hi,

He does not appears to have been buried at Key Hill Cemetery or nearby Warstone Lane Cemetery.
Possible he could have been buried at a church yard, rather than a cemetery.
Consider a family grave out of town if the family had originated from elsewhere. Church burial grounds
Burial grounds for specific faiths
Crematoriums (Cremations were not so common during that period)
Hospital Grounds or intuition grounds.

You could try Uplands Cemetery.
