I could not find specific guidance on access although there is some work being done following the The Living Churchyard and Cemetery Project started in 1988 - have a look at http://www.parliament.the-stationery-office.co.uk/pa/cm200001/cmselect/cmenv tra/91/91m66.htm ...But this largely focuses on promoting the natural habitats. I used a combination of guidance concerning external environments taken from Lacey A(2004) Designing for Accessibility London: Cente for Accessible Environments & RIBA Enterprises and Oxley P (2002) Inclusive Mobility London: Dept of Transport Hope this helps?
