Eastern London Cemetery in Rainham is a private, non-denominational cemetery opened in 2017/18 to help ease London’s burial-space shortage. Its newer granite memorials can still pick up algae, grime and mowing splash. We carry out stone-safe grave and headstone cleaning at Eastern London Cemetery, working within the site’s own rules for memorial work.
About Eastern London Cemetery
Eastern London Cemetery on Upminster Road North in Rainham is a private, non-denominational cemetery opened in 2017/18 on around 20 acres, providing roughly 20,000 new plots to help meet London’s demand for burial space. It shares its entrance with the adjoining Rainham (Federation) Jewish Cemetery but operates as a separate site.
Access: A private cemetery, so memorial work is arranged directly with the site rather than a council. It shares its entrance and address with Rainham (Federation) Jewish Cemetery next door, so it is worth confirming which cemetery a grave is in.
