Falstone Cemetery

Falstone Cemetery was opened in 1911.  The cemetery is situated on the approach road to the village.  As you drive into the village from Stannersburn/C200, it is on the right-hand side of the road, before you go over the North Tyne river bridge into the village.  The entrance is through a set of iron gates flanked by stone pillars.   To arrange interments or to view the burial records, contact the Parish Clerk.
