Epsom Cemetery

Beautiful cemetery, as you approach the cemetery from the town you first see the war memorial standing imperious, the a little further along is the main entrance, as you turn in the delightful chapel sits on the left. This chapel is magestic and is clearly looked after for those families that have lost loved ones who hold there services there. I was there for the annual Christmas service to comemoriate loved ones, it was a lovely service 1that I will return to next year. The views are spectacular and all the staff from the superintendent to the gravediggers should be very proud of what they do, by keeping it so well

Vicky so caring and nothing to much trouble. Thank you for making Arthur’s celebration of life day so very special.

Beautiful Cemetary and a lovely service despite current situation.

Just a pity someone hit my car and didnt leave details, by the looks of the dent it was a van of some kind

Very nice area to reflect the loss of a loved one.

Lovely place my dad there beautiful place right

As peaceful as a cemetery can be, this place is a pleasure to walk in. It is open for most of the day and parking is not an issue. There seems to be a fashion with benches next to graves and I think it’s getting out of hand actually.

Always a joy to be in such a lovely peaceful, well maintained place. A few weeks ago, I found someone had taken a beautiful bronze boxer dog I'd had on my husband's grave for nearly 19 years. What kind of people are around who would do such a thing? One cannot point the finger, but I do have a very strong suspicion as to who has done this. The Office staff were very helpful and compassionate. I'm still very upset about this occurrence.

My close friend passed away last Saturday night after having suffered for so long and now the cemetery is saying that the burial have given a provisional slot in 18 days after.Apparently , the reason given is unreasonable during a pandemic season.This is very sad and heart breaking as us Muslims should be buried as soon as possible and the EEBC is fully aware of this .This sadly demonstrate the lack of sensitivity by the council to a gentleman who worked so hard for the Muslim community in Epsom and Ewell and worked so closely with the council in the past.
I would like NOW to say a BIG THANK YOU to the Council for having done their best to accommodate the burial of my close friend this Friday.Much appreciated,may all the staff remain well and safe.

Just visiting family grave. Always well maintained.

Lovely historical landmark very quiet

Very small chapel

New Update Dec 2023: Despite in my and many others opinion Epsom Council 's continued obstruction, misleading communications and unnecessary delay I do have some positive news. It is now over 10 months since the incident back on the 28th January 2023 when several memorials were destroyed including my Father's and others damaged at the town end of the cemetery opposite the cremation memorials by a motor vehicle. Following the council for the 2nd time renegaging on their commitment to resolve with the driver's insurance company, the insurance company did agree to finally speak with me with after I stated I would be commencing Legal action. It was then resolved quite quickly and we were able to appoint a Stonemasons and we hope the work will commence in Feb 24. I know the other traceable grave owner has followed suit. However despite what you may have read elsewhere the council refuse to provide a meaningful update on those with no traceable owners and based on their previous behaviour the fear is they will continue to do nothing to restore the remaining memorials. You may recall the council initially said they would be taking ownership and resolving with the driver's insurance company but then backtracked without advising grave owners! After 4 months of obstruction, misleading communication or just periods of no communication they then agreed to act on behalf of all as per the demand of the driver's insurance company for a 2nd time only then to do nothing to resolve again. Indeed a senior council official admitted if was not for me nothing would have been done. This has been appalling and demonstrated a complete lack of compassion by our council. The council has not been proactive or communicative have also refused to respond to my complaint re their handling of this incident. I have since learned from a Freedom of Information request to Surrey Police that the council provided an inaccurate report to the Police as part of their cover up of the incident. Meanwhile our local MP has not really been interested when asked to intervene while Epsom Residents Association have also backtracked on their commitment to ensure the council restore all the memorials. Shameful. I will update this post again when I have a further update. Thanks all for reading and it would be great if you could show your support by liking this review.

Our Aunt died March 2020 and her wish was to be fully covered over. She is in the lovely peaceful well maintained section, at the top of the cemetery.
Our Aunt, LEFT funds for this to be done with one of our family Members, this was purchased over a year ago and we can’t have it layed .Vicki the supintendant refuses to give consent as she is supporting Valrie a disruptive individual who does not own the plot. Vicki is dictiminating against us as a family.
The Grave has been left in a terrible state, causing emotional stress to the family who all support the laying of the headstone.
Please advise us of how we can resolve this issue and why are you not adhering to the rules you stated in your leaflet?

It's a beautiful cemetery, but they allow the travellers to cause to much disruption to the peace and quiet. Cars and cars of them, playing music, serving food and allowing their kids to run riot frequently throughout the year. My family have been there for over 20 years. The aforementioned is quite sad really, especially for people who are grieving.
They no longer maintain the cemetery as they used to, in fact the only areas that are maintained beautifully are the areas where the traveler families rest.

I'm unsure what the story is, but I often witness what looks to be meetings with Epsom and Ewell Council workers and said traveler families, one can only imagine what's going on there!

Extremely disappointed with the council as one of my relative who passed away this week and he is still waiting to be buried.
As a Muslim the council is aware that our Burial should be done without delay.
I know we are in a pandemic but to be told that they don’t have any staff to assist with the burial is ridiculous. And he will have to wait another 2 weeks. They need to put more resources to help with this.
The family has already suffered enough with their loss and the delay is causing them more distress.
My relative has always been active with the council and he was one of the persons who lobbied for a Muslim burial plot in Epsom.
I hope and pray that he is put to rest ASAP

I am extremely disappointed by the lack of preparedness of Epsom Cemetery with the increased demands for burials. A close friend of mine passed away on Sunday and the family has been advised that there is a 3 weeks waiting list for his funeral. This is a distressing time for all concerned and especially families losing dear ones during this 2nd wave. Surely it is the council's duty to engage more people if need be, to meet the needs of the BAME community, this gentleman being of Muslim faith .
