Lambeth Crematorium, within Lambeth Cemetery on Blackshaw Road, has been operating since 1958. Its memorial estate includes plaques, kerb tablets, memorial benches and a garden of remembrance, which can dull and streak with algae and general weathering over time. We carry out careful, stone-safe cleaning of plaques and memorials here, working within the crematorium’s own rules for remembrance areas.
About Lambeth Crematorium
Lambeth Crematorium stands within the grounds of Lambeth Cemetery on Blackshaw Road, Tooting, and has been in operation since 1958. It has its own memorial estate of plaques, kerb tablets, memorial benches and a garden of remembrance, separate from the cemetery’s headstones and graves.
Access: Run by Lambeth Bereavement Services as part of Lambeth Cemetery, though physically in Wandsworth. Memorial work here covers plaques, kerb tablets and garden of remembrance features rather than full headstones, and follows the crematorium’s own rules.
