Milespit New Lawn Cemetery, Barnet’s newest burial ground, has been open since 2021 on Milespit Hill, next to Hendon Cemetery.

Because the stock is so new, cleaning here is routine maintenance care rather than restoration, carried out gently and following the council’s rules.
About Milespit New Lawn Cemetery
Milespit New Lawn Cemetery is Barnet’s newest burial ground, open since 2021 on Milespit Hill, next to Hendon Cemetery. It’s a headstone-only lawn cemetery, meaning every memorial on site is a modern upright headstone, and it’s open to anyone regardless of faith or residence, accepting traditional coffins, caskets, wicker coffins and shrouds.
Access: Run by the London Borough of Barnet, sharing an office with the adjacent Hendon Cemetery. As a headstone-only lawn cemetery, all memorials are modern uprights, so cleaning is light maintenance work carried out with the council’s permission.
