Not sure of the legality of it, (and not sure I care !) - but both Mum
and Dad's ashes are scattered in the 'wild bit' at the bottom of the
garden they created from a wilderness over a period of about 25 years.
It seemed fitting .....

as in
"Ashes
These can be freely scattered in the garden or buried in a container
eg.under a favourite tree."
...which seems to be remarkably simple & straightforward steps back
in amazement !
FWIW - at the time we did make enquiries of the National Trust for
doing the same thing but on a piece of their coastal headland that was
special to Mum & Dad - and they came back with a raft of
complications.....
There must be a market there for "The Great Escape" trousers, add ashes take
a walk on your favorite spot, drop and scatter with your foot. The NT will
never know what's going on.

Lovely !
Mind - not sure that the NT know 'what's going on' at the best of
times... they seem to have some odd policies sometimes...
Anyway....
