*In some cases figures may not reflect a genuine increase in cremation numbers. Increases may have been experienced as a result of the closure or restricted operations of neighbouring
crematoria whilst abatement and/or refurbishment works were carried out. Figures may also merely reflect a return to normal levels of operation following completion of similar works.
