Memorials

Remembering your loved one

Situated over a large area, our extensive Gardens of Remembrance are a place of peace and tranquility where you can commemorate the life of your loved one. Follow the paths through the gardens, to the different memorials and around the large natural pond we have situated in our parkland.

Visiting our beautiful gardens of remembrance

There are several benches and areas where you can sit and reflect upon your loved one. There is a small building within the Gardens of Remembrance, where the Book of Remembrance is situated. This is an everlasting memorial where a personalised message can be written and seen as the book is always open on today’s date.

You are welcome to visit and walk around our grounds or arrange an appointment to discuss any memorial you may be considering. Our Memorial Gardens are open everyday 9am – 5pm and our office is open 9am – 5pm, Monday to Friday (excluding bank holidays).

Still unsure of which memorial to choose?

If you are unsure how you would like to remember your loved one, Breckland Crematorium can store the ashes in a safe environment until you have made a decision.

Your chosen memorial

The Book of Remembrance is an everlasting memorial, however all other personalised memorials within Breckland Crematorium grounds will only stay in place for the term you select. After which time, you can renew or remove memorials.
