Under the city-wide public spaces protection order (made under the Anti-social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014), a person who is in charge of a dog that defecates on land to which the public has access, and who fails to immediately remove the faeces, is guilty of a criminal offence. We do allow dogs into the cemeteries if they are on a lead and under the strict control of the owners. Please ask for advice form the Bereavement Services staff about the type of planting that may be suitable for graves.įor safety purposes children under the age of 12 years are only allowed in the cemeteries when accompanied by a responsible adult.
