Memorial Additions

Memorial chippings provide a neat way to finish the centre of a kerbset or another enclosed area of a grave. The colour and material can be selected to blend with the headstone and surrounding stonework, or to create a gentle contrast that brings out the lettering and carved details. Our range includes different shades, sizes and textures, allowing you to choose a finish that feels considered and consistent without taking attention away from the memorial itself.

Think about how the grave will be cared for before choosing a finish or material. Chippings remove the need for planting but will still benefit from occasional tidying, particularly where leaves and debris collect. They must be kept within a suitable border and some options may not be permitted in every cemetery or churchyard. We can help you compare the available colours, consider what will suit the space and check the burial ground’s requirements before ordering.

A photo plaque can bring a familiar face or treasured image into the memorial, creating a detail that family and friends will recognise straight away. Plaques are produced in a range of shapes, sizes and finishes, with choices to suit both new and existing headstones. The photograph may be reproduced in colour or a more traditional monochrome finish, depending on the image supplied and the appearance you would like to achieve.

The quality of the finished plaque begins with the photograph, so send us the clearest version you have, whether that is an original print, scan or digital image. We can look at its composition, discuss any cropping or adjustment that may help and choose a plaque size that suits the available space. Before it is ordered, we will also check how the plaque can be positioned and whether the cemetery or churchyard requires approval.
