Spring & summer events in the Cemetery
Rectory Lane Cemetery is St Peter’s beautiful Victorian burial ground, a tranquil nature haven tucked away behind the Rex Cinema. It closed to burials in the 1970s, but has been lovingly restored as a community green space. There are some lovely outdoor family events coming up this summer in the cemetery:
- April-October: Books in the Woods – monthly reading & nature activity sessions for children 5 and under
- April & May: WildStrong – low-intensity exercise & mobility group
- 8 May: VE Day 80th Anniversary – the cemetery will host part of Berkhamsted’s VE Day Celebrations
- Saturday 15 June: Great Big Nature Hunt – discover bugs, butterflies & bees
- Saturday 28 June: live music in the cemetery, fundraising for St Peter’s Renovation Appeal
