Memorials

Memorials are stepping stones to the past and to the future – they link the generations.

The word ‘memorial’ derives from the Latin ‘memor’ which means ‘mindful’. We are certainly mindful of those we love and when they die, memories remain with us in so many ways.

Memorials are just one way of perpetuating these memories and providing a focal point for family, friends and others.  They may be as modest or as extravagant as you decide or as you feel the deceased would wish.  Whether families choose to scatter or inter cremated remains, they can create an everlasting memorial to a loved one.

A wide range of memorial plaques are available for purchase from council.  Plaque choices include bronze or granite and can be personalised to include emblems, family crests, illustrations and photographs.

Memories are precious and should be shared with future generations.  A plaque is an item of beauty and great dignity which provides a focus for grieving and a point of reference to a person’s existence. By selecting a bronze plaque, you are carrying on a rich and proud tradition.  Bronze is an ageless and elegant metal that has been used for thousands of years to commemorate and memorialise people, places and events.

Here are examples of images which can be used on the cast bronze plaques and some examples of plaques and borders.
