About West London Crematorium
West London Crematorium stands on Harrow Road within the grounds of Kensal Green Cemetery, built and run by The General Cemetery Company. It has its own memorial gardens, columbarium and niche walls, offering ashes memorials as an alternative to a full grave.
Access: The General Cemetery Company runs West London Crematorium, the same operator as neighbouring Kensal Green Cemetery. Work on plaques, niche walls and the columbarium follows the company’s own rules, which are separate from any full-grave memorial conditions elsewhere on the wider site.
