Churchyard Memorials

Churchyard rules and regulations restrict the types of memorial and materials allowed. In general, the following apply:

• Dark grey granite, Crownstone and other limestones or sandstones are permitted as long as they are in keeping with the Church
• Black granite or white marble are not permitted
• No stone may have a reflective, polished finish
• Ornamentation is subject to the Minister's permission asn is usually only allowed to be plain or gold
• The rules and regulations also state that a memorial should not be placed on a grave until at least six months after the burial, although some Ministers do not enforce this rule.

An application needs to be made to the Minister for any memorial work carried out in their Churchyard. We will do this on your behalf and carry out the memorial work once the necessary permission has been received. Fees are usually payable to the Church and we can advise you of this cost.
