Churchyard &
Cemetery Memorials
Traditional memorials in Yorkstone, Italian Nabresina and white marble, offering softer textures and naturally understated character.
Traditional materials with natural character
Natural stone offers a softer, more traditional appearance than highly polished granite. The materials weather gradually over time, helping a memorial settle sympathetically into its surroundings.
Choosing a material
Yorkstone, Nabresina & Marble
Churchyards and cemeteries apply different regulations. We will confirm what is permitted in the chosen burial ground before an order is placed.
Italian Nabresina
A fine-grained, fawn-grey limestone sometimes called Crownstone. Its restrained colouring works particularly well in traditional settings.
Often churchyard suitableWhite Marble
A distinctive pale material with elegant character. Marble is softer than Yorkstone and Nabresina and is generally not permitted in churchyards.
