Dissenters graveyard

[quizmaster]

I thought that Dissenters was the term applied to those people who followed non CofE religions such as the Free Churches etc. and that the term was very 17th/18th century. I passed one today that is still in use. Does anyone know what today's qualifications for interrment in such a resting place might be? For the record, it was in Cottenham near Cambridge.

Could it be that it's only the name that survives from earlier times, and that it's not now restricted in its use?

Our local free church graveyard is owned by the local Baptist and Methodist churches and burials are restricted to the families associated with those churches partly due to lack of space.

 I suspect your Dissenters Graveyard is in a similar position but retains its old name
