Warrrill Park Lawn Cemetery | Plot Remediation
We are pleased to announce that we, in conjunction with Ipswich City Council, have initiated trial work in Section 2 of Warrill Park Lawn Cemetery. This important project aims to raise existing memorials and enhance the overall appearance of this section.
We acknowledge that water pooling over memorials has been a persistent issue in this part of the cemetery, and we are seeking solutions to resolve this problem. For this purpose, we have selected two rows in Block One of Section 2—Rows 33 and 34—to conduct a trial using a new method for placing memorials. The goal of this trial is to enhance the lawn burial area and minimise water accumulation that occurs after heavy rainfall.
We will install concrete kerbing along each row and fill the space with decorative stones. The memorials and bases will then be placed on top of the stones within the concrete border. Similar work has been successfully completed at the Toowoomba and Drayton Cemetery.
At this stage, we anticipate work will be completed by the end of October 2025, weather permitting. We invite you to contact our office staff with any feedback or questions you may have.
