Yes. Hillingdon and Uxbridge Cemeteries on Hillingdon Hill are two adjacent grounds that the council lists and administers as one. Older sections tend to hold weathered limestone, sandstone and marble; later ones are mostly granite. We clean graves and headstones there by hand, using stone-safe methods and working to Hillingdon Council’s memorial rules.
About Hillingdon and Uxbridge Cemeteries
Hillingdon Council lists Hillingdon Cemetery and Uxbridge Cemetery as a single combined entry on Hillingdon Hill: two historically distinct grounds, next to one another and administered together. In practice families often use either name for the same visit, and the council does not separate them in its own records.
Access: Administered by Hillingdon Council as one combined site, so memorial work follows the council’s permit and rules. Because the two grounds sit together, it helps to have the section and grave number to hand so we find the right plot first time.
- Administered by
- London Borough of Hillingdon
Permission: memorial work here is governed by London Borough of Hillingdon. In practice the registered grave owner’s consent is what we ask for, and we work to the site’s own memorial rules — see their memorial guidance, or our guide to who needs permission to clean a grave.
