The United Synagogue cemeteries are maintained to a good standard but due to the nature of the grounds there are inevitable risks namely, slips and trips. By agreeing to visit our cemeteries, the United Synagogue Burial Society consider that you understand and accept these conditions. Please be careful when visiting as paths can be very uneven. When walking around the graves please ensure that you do not hold onto the headstones and ensure you watch your footing. The ground at these cemeteries is very volatile; subsidence can occur at any time. Please take notice of the iron railings and any signage indicating risk.
