Cork city graveyard extension to include eco-burial site and cremation plots

Unlike traditional cemeteries where plots are laid out in a linear style, eco-graveyard plots are laid out irregularly, linked by winding grassy avenues.
An historic Cork city cemetery is set for a major extension that will include the city’s first dedicated eco-burial site and specific mini-plots for the burial of cremated remains.
Plans for the extension of St Catherine’s Cemetery in Kilcully, on the city’s northside, which have been on the cards for some time but which were delayed by the pandemic, are now being finalised.
