Cemetery memorials

Our cemeteries and crematoriums provide a peaceful and beautiful place for you to remember your loved ones. For anyone wishing to arrange a tribute for a loved one, we are able to offer a wide selection of memorials, including books of remembrance, memorial plaques and miniature keepsakes. We also have a range of different memorial gardens for those who wish to scatter cremated remains in one of our cemeteries.

You can view the different types of memorials available and how to buy them using the link below.

Installing cemetery memorials

To maintain high standards of safety, only monumental masons who are approved by the council are allowed to fix memorials in our cemeteries. All headstones must be installed by a qualified and accredited fixer to national safety standards.

Please note that in the interests of public safety, any memorial fixed in our cemeteries without the written permission of the council or found to be unsafe may be removed without notice.
