Memorials

Book of Remembrance

Personal memorial inscriptions can be included in the Book of Remembrance.

All applicants will be sent information about the book of remembrance a couple of weeks after the cremation has taken place.

The cost of inclusion in the Book of Remembrance and other memorials is set out in the list of crematorium charges. 

Memorial Vase and Tablet

A memorial vase and tablet can be leased in the garden of remembrance for 10 years, which can be extended for a fee at that end of the period.

The inscribed black granite tablet is placed on a sandstone base providing a personal vase were flowers can be placed.

Information about leasing a memorial vase and tablet, including an application form and price list, will be forwarded to the applicant about two weeks after the cremation has taken place.

To help maintain the garden of remembrance to a high standard, all floral tributes and memorials must be placed in the areas provided.

Any tributes or memorials placed on the lawns will be moved to the designated areas.

Memorial Registraton Scheme

Wirral Council and local memorial masons have developed the Memorial Registraton Scheme to help ensure the current and future safety of memorials, quality service and high standards of workmanship.

For a memorial mason to be registered on this scheme they must ensure that all of their memorials are installed according to the National Association of Memorial Masons (NAMM) Code of Working Practice and that their work is covered by a 10 year workmanship guarantee. Members of the British Register of Accredited Memorial Masons (BRAMM) can also provide this guarantee.

This guarantee gives an acceptable standard of work in respect of materials and construction (excluding all applied finishes and subsidence due to ground movement beyond their control).
