Chapel of Remembrance

The Chapel of Remembrance is a place for quiet contemplation for visitors to the Cemetery. It is open to the public between April and September.

The Chapel was constructed circa mid-19th Century and features traditional ecclesiastical gothic style architecture. It had fallen into disrepair and was being used as storage, however in 2015 the Parish Council undertook an extensive refurbishment of the building, and further structural improvements are planned.

The Chapel houses the Buckingham War Memorial, which is on loan by Leicester Arts and Museums. The Parish Council was approached by Leicester City, County and Rutland At Risk Project which recovers, restores and suitably relocates war memorials to preserve for generations to come, and who had discovered the memorial in storage in a City Council owned premises.

  My husband died in April 2024 this year.
From the moment i called Samantha at the bay tree she organised everything. On the day of the funeral it was everything my husband could have wished for and Samantha and her team were so respectful of the care and attention to my husband’s remains from the beginning to the end.so professional and so caring. I can’t thank her and team of staff enough for the peace of mind and relief knowing My husband couldn’t have had a better send off. Thank you all at Bay Tree.

  An extremely professional and caring approach throughout. Communication was always open and clear, Sam was readily available to answer questions and discuss arrangements and queries.  We have used this funeral directors twice now and wouldn't consider using anyone else. Sam made an incredibly hard situation much more bearable. Thank you.
