Whilst it is not possible to calculate precisely how many years’ capacity remains at Chigwell Cemetery, this report provides estimates ranging from 53 to 24 years and suggests 38.5 years as being a reasonable estimate. In view of these factors, the securing of the land immediately adjacent to the cemetery for the purposes of a future cemetery extension would guarantee the continued provision of burial space in Chigwell Cemetery into the long term. Peter Mitchell Associates © March 2016 Page 3 of 31 Introduction This report updates a report issued in April 2015 and re-examines the issues affecting the future capacity of Chigwell Parish Council’s cemetery, in Froghall Lane Chigwell. The Author I am Peter Mitchell, Fellow and Diploma holder of the Institute of Cemetery and Crematorium Management. Commencing in February 1983, I have worked at all levels from operations to management in cemeteries and crematoria in both public and private sectors. Since April 2002, I have been an independent consultant specialising in all matters relating to burial, cremation and exhumation. I am very familiar with the issues associated with the provision, development and management of cemeteries and crematoria. My work has involved me in assessing the need for new developments, undertaking feasibility studies, ground investigations and advising on design. I have an extensive knowledge of the law relating to burial, cremation and exhumation. My professional life has brought me into close contact with many bereaved people, Funeral Directors and Officiants, which has given me an understanding of the needs of key stakeholders involved in providing for the deceased and the bereaved.

This projected increase will inevitably lead to increased demand for burial space in Chigwell Cemetery. Peter Mitchell Associates © March 2016 Page 9 of 31 Religion Religious belief can play a significant role in people’s choice between burial and cremation. Demand for burial and cremation facilities may thus be influenced by the religious beliefs of the residents of a particular area. Forbid Permit Cremation Cremation Muslims Hindus Jews – Orthodox Buddhists Greek Orthodox Sikhs Russian Orthodox Roman Catholic Zoroastrians Jews – Liberal Parsees Church of Scotland Church of England Church in Wales Church of Ireland Presbyterians Methodists Table 1: Religious Attitudes towards Cremation (Source: Cremation Society of Great Britain) The vast majority of Hindus, Buddhists and Sikhs all choose cremation in preference to burial. In contrast, Muslims and Orthodox Jews choose burial. An area with a high proportion of Muslims is thus going to have lower demand for a crematorium than one with a high proportion of Hindus, Buddhists and Sikhs. The majority of Roman Catholics still seem to prefer burial, in spite of a Papal edict in July 1963 that stated that they are permitted to choose cremation. The most recent data on religious belief is contained in the Census 2011. The chart below illustrates the Census 2011 data and compares the minority religious beliefs of the population of Epping Forest, Essex and England as a whole. Peter Mitchell Associates © March 2016 Page 10 of 31 Figure 6: Minority religious belief (Census 2011) Epping Forest is more diverse than Essex as a whole and has a higher proportion of its population who are Jewish and almost as high a proportion who are Hindu as England as a whole. The Jewish people are likely to choose burial at one of the exclusively Jewish cemeteries in the area. The relative proportions of Sikhs, Hindus and Muslims will effectively balance out the demand for cremation and burial from these groups. Ethnicity Ethnic origin is often associated with religious belief and thus preferences for burial or cremation. The chart below compares ethnicity in Epping Forest, Essex and England as a whole for the non-white groups: Peter Mitchell Associates © March 2016 Page 11 of 31 Figure 7: Non-white ethnicity (Census 2011) The chart below illustrates by ward the proportions of people in non-white ethnic groups: Figure 8: Non-white ethnicity at ward level (Census 2011) Peter Mitchell Associates © March 2016 Page 12 of 31 There is considerable variation, with the highest diversity in Grange Hill, Chigwell and Buckhurst Hill, which form the primary catchment area for Chigwell cemetery. Whilst the highest proportion is people of Indian origin, who are likely to prefer cremation, other significant groups prefer burial. Whilst Epping Forest is generally less diverse than England as a whole, it is more diverse than Essex as a whole. Specifically Epping Forest has more people of Caribbean, Pakistani and Indian origin, the first two groups preferring burial. Summary of demographic factors Chigwell Cemetery primarily serves people living within a number of wards of Epping Forest District Council. Epping Forest has a relatively older age structure compared to England as a whole. This helps explain why, in spite of the projected increase in population, deaths are projected to increase more, by 36% by 2037. The relatively high proportion of Jewish people living in Epping Forest suggests a higher than average demand for burial. However, this demand will almost exclusively be met a specifically Jewish cemeteries, so will not impact upon demand at Chigwell Cemetery. Religious belief does not significantly impact upon demand for burial at Chigwell Cemetery. The highest proportions of the non-white population in Epping Forest are Indian, who are generally Hindu or Sikh and prefer cremation. However, overall other ethnic groups such as Pakistanis, Bangladeshis and Caribbean people represent a slightly higher proportion of the population and these groups generally prefer burial. These demographic factors indicate a sustained and growing demand for burial at Chigwell Cemetery. Peter Mitchell Associates © March 2016 Page 13 of 31 The context of burial space capacity. The provision of burial space capacity varies widely across England and Wales. Whilst in the past media attention has focused primarily upon the situation in London, shortage of burial space can and does occur in rural areas, as highlighted in the following media report: “A national shortage of grave space has become “critical” with some towns now on the brink of having nowhere to bury the dead, MPs have warned.

  • Dover Patrol
    DOVER PATROL (Trawlers & Minesweepers) Civic War Memorial This important local civic war memorial was placed inside the Holy Trinity Church, Dover in November 1918 by the families of the fallen men of the Dover Patrol (Trawlers & Minesweeping Patrol). In 1945 the church was sadly demolished after enemy bomb damage. The memorial needed a new home. The Dover Sea Cadets (Training Ship Lynx) at Archcliffe Fort agreed to look after it at their headquarters. The Sea Cadets moved from Archcliffe Fort in the 1970’s and the memorial was given to Dover District Council for safekeeping. The memorial is presently held in safekeeping by the Dover Museum. In 2006 it was being stored in an obscure shed at Deal. It is hoped that the memorial will be placed on public display at some stage in the future… The Great War 1914 – 1919 LEGEND + DIED IN SERVICE Roll of Honour LEFT HAND LEAF Sub Lieutenant J.H RIDDING + Petty Officer A FIELDER + Sub Lieutenant D BROWN + Petty Officer F ALLEN + Wireless Telegraph Operator E.A SUTTON Seaman F RANDALL + + Lieutenant W.H MERTON Deck Hand J.N LAMBIE + Sub-Lieutenant F.R WINPENNY + 2nd Engineer W SHELLEY + Lieutenant Commander H CALDER + Steward G SMITH + Assistant Engineer F.W PENDER + Cook W MOORE + Sub Lieutenant J.A MACINTOSH + Assistant Steward G MAJOR + Skipper J SANDFORD + Signal Boy A.W MANNING + Skipper R SAUNDERS + Trimmer W.H MOSS + Skipper G WEST + Fireman Trimmer A.S MOTT Skipper G.A ROSE + Fireman Trimmer K AYLES + Skipper I PEARCE + Greaser E PRITCHARD + Skipper T KAY + Able Seaman H CARLING + Lieutenant
