Bosses are warning space in the town for burials is to run out in two years, if nothing is done, meaning people could be buried 15 miles away in Hereford instead.

A town council report on the matter, says the current cemetery will be full in around seven years, and there is "very little land currently available in or around Ledbury, of a suitable size", for a replacement. It also says acquiring a new site would cost up to 拢790,000, with a Government grant is "not an option", meaning council tax would need to rise significantly to pay for it.

They say they are also trying to encourage more people to opt for cremations instead.

A working group has been set up to look at it in more detail. The cemetery tell us that the council doesn't have a legal obligation to bury people, and once the cemetery is full, as it stands, all future burials would be atomically directed to Hereford.
