Corsham Cemeteries

Corsham has three cemeteries that are cared for by the Town Council: The Chapel Cemetery (sometimes referred to as Ladbrook Lane Old Cemetery or the Closed Cemetery); Ladbrook Lane Cemetery, which has been in service since the early 1960s, and Lacock Road Cemetery which came into use in early 2022.

Ladbrook Lane Cemetery

Corsham Town Council manages and maintains Ladbrook Lane Cemetery as a peaceful and attractive resting place to serve the residents of Corsham. 

The cemetery is situated along Ladbrook Lane, between Lacock Road and Gastard, and was laid out in the 1960s after the adjoining Chapel Cemetery was closed for new graves. The layout offers a range of interment choices, such as lawn, traditional and cremation plots.

Applications for purchase of plots, burials and monuments are administered by Town Council staff, who can also help find records of family history for burials that have taken place since 1964.

Pre-1964, the cemetery was run by St Bartholomew’s Church and they hold the records. St Bart’s can be contacted via Church House, on 01249 701720 or email. Further information on St Bart’s and other local churches can be found at greatercorshamchurches.org.uk.
