Dovecot Memorial Park Spanish Town, St. Catherine Dovecot Memorial Park was originally a concept pitched to Maddens by previous owner, Victor Morris. Morris had planned for the park to feature 53 acres of extensive lawns with flat headstones, based on a concept developed in the United States. Morris operated Dovecot for 2 ½ years before deciding to migrate in 1977. It was at this time that Maddens bought the property. Dovecot accommodates an average of 1,500 burials a year. The park has an annual Blessing of the Graves in November. This event offers a time to clean up and beautify the park. It also gives an opportunity to meet with families who gather to lay flowers at the graves of departed loved ones. The cemetery also offers a chapel where funeral services and memorial services can be held. An organist will be provided with the rental of the chapel. If the family needs a minister one can be provided. Rules and Regulations Visitors are reminded that Dovecot Memorial Park is a sacred place.
