What a Haddonstone Garden Cremation Memorial offers

Over recent years cremation has become the predominant choice of those faced with life’s final decision.

Cremated remains can be too precious to contemplate immediate final disposal by scattering as there is often a lack of time to adjust to the loss. Scattering also leaves those grieving without a focal point, unlike a conventional grave.

There are of course alternatives: many
cemeteries offer cremation plots but these can be expensive, regimented and impersonal with the location inconvenient to visit as often as one may wish. If canister urns are kept in the home, because of their proximity, it is often difficult to come to terms with separation.

If undertaken in a sensitive and discreet way a garden cremation memorial offers the perfect solution. Not only does such a feature provide an unobtrusive yet personal ornament without the formality and expense of a traditional memorial, it also provides the ideal compromise between distance and closeness which is so valued during the grieving process.

Haddonstone’s Garden Cremation Memorials are designed to be used as a normal garden ornament yet, with a subtle inscription added, can provide a tasteful memorial piece. Should the memorial need to be relocated at a future time, or an additional Poly-Urn added, this is easily done and if, through the passage of time, you wish to scatter the remains, the memorial can still be retained as a decorative item.

    

 

 
 
 
 
 
Haddonstone, the UK’s leading manufacturer of fine cast stone garden ornaments, has introduced a unique range of Garden Cremation Memorials. Exceptionally crafted, yet unobtrusive, each design provides both a beautiful ornament and a discreet receptacle for a loved one’s cremated remains.

The Haddonstone Memorials range comprises the following designs:
• Memorial Vase and Pedestal
• Memorial Bird Bath and Pedestal
• Memorial Classical Sundial and Pedestal
• Memorial Celestial Sundial and Pedestal
Each design incorporates a plinth which can accommodate one or two proprietary Poly-Urns (one supplied with memorial).

To personalize each memorial a stone inscription panel is recess fixed into the pedestal. This is supplied inclusive of a cut inscription detailing a first name, surname and years of birth and death. Additional characters can be inscribed, if practical. Alternatively, should a comprehensive inscription be required, a high quality perspex plaque can be fixed.
If you wish, there are a number of other decorative design items that can be provided. These include: photograph plaques; metal crosses; flowers etc. Haddonstone also has a comprehensive range of other conventional garden ornaments, bench seats, fountains, obelisks and much more.
