West Norwood Crematorium sits within the grounds of West Norwood Cemetery on Norwood Road, and includes memorial gardens and gardens of remembrance for cremated remains rather than traditional headstones. Plaques and small memorial tablets there can gather grime and moss over time. We carry out gentle, stone-safe cleaning of these memorials, in line with Lambeth’s bereavement services rules.
About West Norwood Crematorium
West Norwood Crematorium lies within West Norwood Cemetery on Norwood Road, and is run by Lambeth Bereavement Services. It provides gardens of remembrance and memorial plaques for cremated remains, alongside the wider Victorian cemetery. The site includes a well-documented Greek Orthodox necropolis, one of the most notable such concentrations in south London.
Access: Run by Lambeth Bereavement Services as part of the wider West Norwood Cemetery site. Memorial and plaque cleaning here follows the council’s cemetery rules, and the crematorium gardens are separate from the historic cemetery’s monumental sections.
- Administered by

In practice the registered grave owner’s consent is what we ask for, and we work to the site’s own memorial rules — see their memorial guidance, or our guide to who needs permission to clean a grave.
