Upper Road,
Upper Parkstone
The name Branksome Cemetery is nowadays a little misleading, because the cemetery is found situated in Upper Road on the outskirts of Parkstone, around ¾ of a mile from the
main shopping area of Ashley Road.
Branksome Cemetery has its own lodge at the entrance to the cemetery and a chapel a little further up. The chapel, while somewhat basic, at least offers a place of shelter for
small funerals being followed by interment in the grounds. Branksome is set on the higher areas of Parkstone which overlook the areas from which it takes its name. On a clear
day, it is possible to glimpse Bournemouth in the distance.
New space has been found to provide new full size graves for adult burial; this has been
done by taking up some old grassed pathways and there remains space for new graves
for interment of cremated remains or children.
