Marden Cemetery

Although dogs are not allowed in the cemetery dog walkers are permitted to use the tarmac footpath between the two pedestrian gates allowing access to public rights of way along Maidstone Road.  Please pick up any dog poo and take home with you or dispose in bins.  Do not cut across the grassed area at the front of the graves.
