Gardens of Remembrance

The gardens have been designed to offer areas of formal arrangement alongside areas of unspoilt natural beauty, to provide an atmosphere of peace and life, and a source of comfort to those whose loved ones rest there.

Woodland, Gardens of Remembrance, Breakspear
Following the cremation, remains can (if desired) be returned to the earth in the gardens.

If you wish to witness the scattering, appointments can be arranged for a Wednesday or Thursday every hour between 9.15am and 2.15pm.

An attendant will escort you. If you wish for a minister or celebrant to speak on your behalf, this will need to be arranged by you. 

The Gardens of Remembrance is an area available to everyone. Those seeking solace of the quiet contemplation and those who appreciate the beauty of well-maintained gardens are very welcome to visit.

The gardens are open 365 days of the year and staff at Breakspear Crematorium will be pleased to assist visitors with any enquiries they may have.
