Yardley Cemetery Plot Map

[pjmburns]

On my way back from taking the recycling to the tip (as per instructions during the bin strike ) I detoured to Yardley Crematorium/cemetery.

The lady in the office was friendly but... the office does not deal with any burial requests/info they only deal with cremations. The Burial Team deal with all enquiries. She didn't appear to know there had ever been another map to the one in post #6. She was unaware the sections had ever had letters.
So I assume if there is such a map (which there must be) the Burial team have the only access.

I have submitted an enquiry to the Team

I've had a quick response. Basically phone and ask each time.

The lettered section was the old way of identifying grave locations in the cemetery – they were then converted to numbers. If you tell us the grave number we can identify which numbered section the grave is in.

I had this merry go around last year.Searched on their site and told me they were at Yardley so went to Brum library and found location.Got to Yardley and got a map....no letters so phoned and then they said it was a certain place which turned out to be a public area where they were scattered.A lot of effort and nothing to see...lol. Thing is where did they reference and change the letter to number ?
