Crematorium facilities

The chapel

The chapel at our crematorium can accommodate all cultures, traditions and beliefs.

It holds up to 140 people and we can arrange it in a style that the family would like. There is seating for 80 people and chairs can be removed to accommodate wheelchairs if needed.

We can also show the service on a television screen in the waiting room if required.

With a picture window looking out over the crematorium grounds the chapel is peaceful and tranquil.

The length of each service is 30 minutes (if you require a longer service time this can be arranged subject to availability). 

Music for the funeral

We use the Obitus music system, which has an extensive library, including hymns, classical and other popular tracks.

If you would like to use an organist, the funeral director can arrange this for you.

Visual tributes

We have a wall-mounted television screen in the chapel, which can show visual tributes.  There are 4 visual tribute options available:

• Halo photograph - a single photograph on show throughout the service - free of charge
• Simple slideshow - up to 25 photographs shown, without music, on a continuous loop throughout the service or shown once at a time of your choosing - £38
• Professional photo tribute - up to 25 photographs, set to music of your choice, played once at a time of your choosing - £70
• Family made video tribute - a home-made video to be played once, at a time of your choosing - £18

If you cannot attend a service

Webcam

If family or friends are unable to attend the service, we have a webcam available. The service can be watched live and will be available for 28 days. It can also be downloaded. The cost is £45.

We provide an internet link and password details and up to 150 people can then view the service online.

Permission to use the webcam service must come from the person arranging the funeral. They will be given details of how to view the service and can pass the information to mourners who want to view online.

Copies of the service

A DVD/Blu-Ray/USB of the funeral service (with or without the visual tribute) is available for a cost of £50. A DVD/Blu-Ray/USB of just the visual tribute costs £21. Each additional copy costs £21.
