Christmas Greetings and a Happy New Year from Oakfield Wood, Wrabness.

We would like to wish you all Christmas Greetings from all the Staff at Oakfield Wood Natural Woodland Burial Ground in Wrabness, Essex. We hope this festive season brings fond and happy memories for you all. Wishing you a happy and healthy new year.

At this time of celebration and remembrance, Christmas adornments will be left in place over the holiday period. We understand and respect that families wish to include their passed loved ones in their thoughts and celebrations.

From the 06 January 2026, we will remove all decorations that have been left to return the woodland to the natural keeping of our burial grounds. We greatly appreciate any help from visitors to remove any decorations you may have placed prior to this date. Thank You.

Tree planting will begin in January for all those laid to rest in the woodland this year and for any trees that may have struggled in the previous planting season.

Ensuring the long term health of Oakfield Woodland is vitally important. Great care and consideration is taken to ensure that the most suitable species of trees and their placement with neighbouring trees are chosen. The most suitable tree type will be chosen, determined by its location, to allow and encourage the essential symbiosis and support between trees.

Our prices will increase on 05 January 2026. All files that have been started this year will remain at 2025 prices, but for all enquiries after 05 January the 10% increase will be added. Please see the new price list on the website.

Report a Tree

Sometimes, one of the Trees of Oakfield Wood Wrabness requires attention by one of our experienced team members. With over 3000 trees to look after, it is very helpful if a member of the public can let us know about something they have spotted. So please, drop us a message to let us know of any issues with the trees.

Our woodland burial grounds are protected by the Essex Wildlife Trust and so offer permanent resting places that will forever remain completely undisturbed.
