Memorials For Graves
There are many different ways to memorialise your loved one and knowing which type to choose is not always straight forward. Often the type of memorial will be determined by the regulations of the churchyard or cemetery in which the grave is located, but there can huge variations in what is permissible. We are able to guide you through this process. Our memorial experts can offer great advice on matters such as cemetery regulations, stone types and memorial design.

BESPOKE MEMORIALS FOR GRAVES
Creating truly bespoke memorials for graves can be simple and straight forward. We prefer to use real examples of our work as a reference for future designs and do not have a catalogue of factory made templates. Once we know the words you would like we make a series of drawings to show you what is possible, eventually arriving at a design that we can submit to the authorising body for approval.
GOOD DESIGN & BEAUTIFUL LETTERING
We put good design and beautiful lettering at the heart of everything we do. Our designers individually craft the lettering on all of our memorials for graves. This requires skill and many years of practice to perfect, guaranteeing all our memorials have beautiful lettering throughout. We have years of experience matching lettering styles to stone materials and can offer expert advice on what will work best for your design. From classic formal Roman capitals, to flourished italics, our V-cut lettering gives our bespoke memorials a timeless quality.
Knowledge and EXPERTISE
As talented memorial stonemasons, we are knowledgeable about the different types of stone, their individual properties and where to source the highest quality raw materials from. We are experts at working with a wide range of stones sourced from within the UK and Europe, including Celtic Limestone, Welsh Slate, Yorkshire Sandstone, Portland Limestone and Nabresina.
“Just a quick line to let you know that my youngest brother and I finally visited the South London Cemetery today. We were both overwhelmed with the memorial headstone for our sister and parents. Its absolutely beautiful with the ceramic photograph. The slate stone is so smooth with striking detail for the inscriptions. We are so pleased with what you and your talented team have created for us, a touching tribute for our families to visit. Many thanks for your guidance and support with this hugely important final chapter”
