Douglas cemeteries closed

Douglas cemeteries are now closed to the public.

Douglas borough cemetery on Glencrutchery Road and the lawn cemetery on Johnny Watterson Lane will both be shut, from today.

It's as a result of restrictions imposed by the Emergency Powers (Coronavirus) (Closure of Businesses and Other Premises) Regulations 2020. 

The only exception to the closure will be when the two cemeteries are being used for funerals, cremations and burials. 

A maximum of 15 mourners are permitted in line with government guidelines.
