1. The response to your request can be found here. 

Please note that our burial ground stats are collated for the burial year April to March and not the calendar year. Also, we we collate the number of full interments separately from the ashes interments but the ashes figure won't reflect the number of cremations in the area. The crematorium would be best to contact for that.
