Searching our burial records

Burial statistics

We are responsible for four of the Cemeteries within the Braintree District. These are:

  • Bocking Cemetery, Church Lane
  • Braintree Cemetery, London Road
  • Halstead Cemetery, Colchester Road
  • Witham Cemetery, Manor Road

Information not held by us

We do not hold information on:

  • Burial statistics for non-council run cemeteries
  • Cremation statistics
  • Cause of death 

We consider information held on the interment of ashes to be separate to cremations. Interring ashes is the burial of cremated remains and considered a commemorative event.

Cremations are not conducted by us, as we do not own or run a crematorium. Therefore we hold no information on figures for cremations within the district.

Full burial figures

We hold information on figures of full burials within the four cemeteries we have responsibility for.
