Ordering a memorial

In each of our seven cemeteries, a temporary memorial will be placed on a grave for approximately 12 months following the date of a burial in a new grave.

This is to allow the owner of the Exclusive Right of Burial to the grave sufficient time to arrange for the placement of a more permanent marker.

The purchase and erection of a memorial in the form of a headstone or flatstone should be arranged by a memorial mason who is authorised to work in our cemeteries. A list of memorial masons can be requested using our online e-form (secure).

Other forms of memorial are available for loved ones following a cremation. A full list of options can be requested using our online e-form (secure).
