Burials & Cremations

Cremations

Due to the high cost of land Cremation has become the more popular choice of funeral.
Our local crematorium in Tunbridge Wells with its beautiful grounds has a pleasant chapel which can seat a congregation of 90, with a screen in the waiting room that can stream the service should the numbers be higher, in contrast there is a smaller chapel based in the Cemetery grounds.
Although Tunbridge Wells is the closest Crematorium you may hold a Cremation anywhere and Cremated remains can be interred or scattered at any Crematorium even if the Cremation did not take place there. We have conducted Cremations as far away as Exeter, Solihull and Newcastle and are happy to advise you.


Burials

Our local Cemetery in Tonbridge has its own Service Chapel but not all Cemeteries do, however your local parish church can accomodate larger numbers which you may want to consider attending a local Church for the service

It also has a very pretty garden of remembrance and other areas set aside for the burial of Cremated remains.

There are only a few churchyards in the local area where burials can still take place and these are mostly restricted to those who resided in the parish at the time of their death, our staff will be able to advise and guide you where necessary

Our staff will also be able to help you with a family Memorials for the grave, we can mark the grave with an oak cross until the headstone is ready to be put in place.
