New Brentford Cemetery, on Sutton Lane, is a closed council cemetery — despite its name it sits within Hounslow rather than Brentford. No new burials are taken, though existing family graves can sometimes be reopened, and older headstones here can gather moss, algae and general soiling. We carry out stone-safe grave and headstone cleaning, following the council’s rules for a closed burial ground.
