What is the purpose of a licence?
The duration for a burial licence is fifty years, and twenty five years for the rose garden, the shrub garden and the niche wall sections of the cemetery. A licence holder has rights, but also responsibilities. As a registered licence holder you have the right to sole decision as to how the site is used and who is buried within the site. The most important responsibility of a licence holder is to continue to maintain access to the site by way of renewal of the licence. In order to do this the City of Salisbury requires you to notify us of any change in your address.
