A NEW eco-friendly cemetery where up to 1,000 nature lovers can be buried has finally been given the green light.
The recently deceased will be laid to rest under a “cathedral of trees” at the site at Binning Wood, near Tyninghame, East Lothian.
Only biodegradable coffins will be allowed, while headstones will be banned in a bid to maintain the woodland’s natural setting.
In their place, relatives can place small, locally-sourced stones featuring an inscription to mark their loved ones graves.
