Castle View Farm created a natural burial ground with views of the countryside.
A Leicestershire farmer says a move to turn a farming field into a burial ground has proved popular with local people.
Castle View Farm, in Bottesford created a natural burial ground on land to the east of Normanton Lane, providing a peaceful environment for remembrance at a site filled with wildflowers and views of the countryside.
It provides a sustainable alternative to conventional burial without the formality and memorials of traditional cemeteries.
