Burial is by far the most common choice for interment in Ireland, with Catholic burial practices culturally the norm. But this changing city context had some interesting visible dynamics. Older inner-city and suburban cemeteries no longer have plots available. In the past decade the County Council expanded cemetery provision in mainly rural areas, and it was here that some reflection of Cork’s recent diversity was visible. These included cemeteries with Muslim sections, a Jewish section, and the city’s first columbarium, as well as diversity in names, languages, and symbolism on headstones. About 30 miles from Cork city there is now a very unique crematorium, one of still very few in Ireland.
