Wouldn't worry me because environmental laws mean that, although it is legal, it must be in a position which doesn't cause a problem. No different from burying pets in a garden in my opinion.
However, the family doing it should bear in mind that if ever the property or garden gets a makeover, then they might feel dreadful about Mum turning in her grave (literally and metaphorically).
My mother buried her partners ashes in her garden and planted a rose over them. We dug up the rose and transplanted it when we sold her garden after her death for development. It was the least we could do for her and for him.

Did you know that the weight of the ashes from 'going up the chimney' equates to the weight of your bones and that a sieving process separates the human ashes from any other ashes after the burning process. (Bone ash is dense and heavy) Also did you know that after every cremation the combustion chamber(!) is cleaned out so that no two peoples ashes ever get mixed up. It's the law!!
Just thought you would like that useless piece of information.
Therefore you are not gone up the chimney!!! ;o)

all our deceased family members have been cremated and their ashes scattered at a place of significance for them or their next of kin, and where we can all visit at any time if we want. none have been left at the crematorium and none have had a burial.
personally, i wouldn't consider buying a property with a strangers body buried in the garden, nor would i want my ashes scattered or buried in my garden.
