Killed a house site near me recently! You're going to get into a bit of cost with those consultees! Archaeology can get a bit open ended, I've not had too many nightmares with that to date (touch wood) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AIUI ancient woodland is legally defined in Scotland as continuously existing since before 1750. Hmm. Is there an opportunity for a Green Burial site, or a Scottish version of the long-barrow-columbarium that that Salisbury Farmer Tim Daw build on an unused corner. There's a different company now run by different people developing a chain of them with very nice burial prices thank-you-very-much; they have even been puffed by Countryfile. Are they looking for opportunities? What is appropriate for West Scotland? F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F definately a different idea think digging could be a problem how about burial at sea -- or in a lake in a quarry ? yuo could a have wonderful place for the services over looking the lake-- not sure a viking type funeral with burning boat would be practical nearest crenmatorium is 60 or 80 miles away ----maybe that could work mains gas running down the road at gate but as all these things -- for someone else to do this is the listing for the glebe https://gapinthemarket.com/property/the-glebe-carsluith-creetown-dg8-7dl/ Edited October 22, 2020 by scottishjohn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
