COUNCIL chiefs have confirmed when Wrexham's cemeteries will be open over Christmas.
Wrexham Council has confirmed that Wrexham Cemetery will be open every day – including Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New Years Day – from 10am until 4pm.
Gates are closed at 3.45pm to allow attendants the time to make sure all visitors have left.
The council's offices at Pentrebychan Crematorium will be closed in line with other council offices over the Christmas and New Year period, but the grounds and the Book of Remembrance will be open every day at the same time as Wrexham Cemetery – 10am to 4pm.
Plas Acton Cemetery is left open throughout all hours, and may be accessed by visitors any time.
A council spokesman said: "We know that Christmas can be a time for remembering those no longer with us, and many visitors to our cemeteries will often take the time to pay their respects over the Christmas period.
"With that in mind, we wanted to let visitors know of opening hours and any potential changes."
