His home address on the death cert may point to being buried in the nearest cemetery which are usually now municipal ones, so you could contact the Parks & Cemeteries dept of the Local Council .

It is always possible though he may have been cremated. If you feel its appropriate you could contact the informant whose address should be on the cert too

Usually there will be an obituary in the local paper which will give the details of the funeral. Where I live, 70% of the population are cremated so that might also be a consideration as I imagine that it will be similar around the country.-jl

If you obtain the certificate, perhaps you could contact the informant?

As it is recent if you would like to send a message to me (click on my name to do so) with the person's name, I shall find the death registration for you. Then if you want to send for the certificate you can do so.
