Canwick Road Cemetery - Lincoln

[sallyduk]

I would like some information about Canwick Raod Cemetery, Lincoln.....

Has anyone been to the Cemetery that could help me firstly with opening times and also how to obtain plot numbers and a map of the cemetery?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi Sally

If you do a search with Church Services at Canwick Lincoln, there is a page that provides the contact details for the vicar (based in Washingborough, just down the road from Canwick) and the church warden.  I'd have a go at contacting one of them.

Good luck

Do you actually mean Canwick Road Cemetery - the main Lincoln cemetery?

Anyway, try here http://www.lincoln.gov.uk/Info_page_two_pic_2_det.asp?art_id=9494&sec_id=3268

or Lincoln Archives http://microsites.lincolnshire.gov.uk/Archives/

The last time I was in touch with the county council office's , their charge was £15 to look up a name to give you the plot number

Hi

I have previously found some Canwick Rd burials complete with plot numbers on

http://www.familyhistoryonline.net    under LINCOLNSHIRE CEMETERY REGISTERS (NOT the NBI)

Hi Rosie99, Eilleen, Geoff & Boosh

Many thanks for all the help & advice, it's much appreciated.



Rosie,

I found my Fletchers on the NBI buried at Canwick Rd Cemetery and thought I'd try familyhistoryonline to see if they appeared on their list but nothing on there!


Geoff & Boosh,

I will try the links you have sent me, thanks.



Eilleen,

I had seen somewhere about a £15 charge but thought that was too expensive for the 5 names I would like to find!


Thanks again to you all for the help.

Regards
Sally

Hi Sallyduck

Its a big big cemetery, without the plot numbers you will be walking round there for weeks, that is if you are going to visit it

Hi Ricky

I somehow thought it looked a big site from looking at Google map!

Is the only way to get the plot numbers by paying £15 for each name?

Hi Sally

I think that will be the only way to find out. I suppose you could ask if they do a reduced rate for several lookups, but wouldnt  count on it. But to be honest, without the plot numbers you will be there a very long time. Lucky enough for me all my rellies are buried in the villages around Lincoln. But wish you luck
