Bronze memorial plaques
For a simple yet formal memorial, a bronze plaque may be an appropriate tribute. These plaques are sold on 15 year leases, renewable at the expiry date. We offer two sizes:
- small plaque – 5” x 2 ½” (125mm x 60mm)
- large plaque – 6” x 4” (150mm x 100mm)
These are available at Hutcliffe Wood Garden of Remembrance, City Road Cemetery and Burncross Cemetery columbarium.
Book of Remembrance
The name of deceased and a personal inscription may be entered in the Book of Remembrance, which can be viewed once per year on a chosen date.
These are contained in Remembrance Rooms at City Road Cemetery and Hutcliffe Wood Garden of Remembrance.
Leather memorial panels
These dark blue leather panels are inscribed with gold leaf, bearing the name of deceased and chosen inscription. The panels are displayed within an oak frame and remain in place for 10 or 15 years.
These are available at City Road Cemetery and Hutcliffe Wood Garden of Remembrance.
Memorial wall niches
These polished granite niches are large enough to accept two caskets of cremated remains. The plaque can be incorporated with a photograph of your loved one or an inscription. There is also a small bronze posy vase provided for floral tributes.
These are leased for 10 or 15 years, with the option of renewal, and are available at the Hutcliffe Wood Gardens of Remembrance.
