A New Chapter in Our Grounds
Set within the beautiful landscaped grounds of Sewardstone Park, our crematorium provides families with a serene and dignified setting for remembrance and farewell.
Our New Crematorium at Sewardstone Park
Now complete, the architecturally striking building has been designed to sit in harmony with the surrounding landscape. Every element has been thoughtfully considered to create a calm, contemporary environment that complements the natural beauty of Sewardstone Park.
The crematorium offers the local community a modern, environmentally responsible cremation facility built around comfort, respect and care, continuing our long-standing commitment to serving families of all faiths and beliefs with dignity.
Design & Architecture
Designed to be both beautiful and respectful of its setting, the crematorium reflects a thoughtful balance between contemporary design and natural harmony.
The architecture takes inspiration from the tones and textures of the surrounding landscape, featuring natural materials, cedar cladding and soft, neutral colours that blend seamlessly into the environment.
Inside, the light-filled chapel provides a tranquil and uplifting space for services. Generous windows frame views across the park and create a calm, welcoming atmosphere. The layout has been carefully designed to offer comfort and privacy for families, with private rooms and landscaped courtyards for reflection.
Every detail, from the proportions of the building to the materials used, has been considered to create a sense of calm and timeless respect.
Services and Facilities
The crematorium offers a full range of facilities and options designed to meet the needs of families of all cultures, faiths and beliefs. We provide flexibility, choice and peace of mind in every arrangement.
Ceremonial Building
Alongside the crematorium, our Ceremonial Building continues to offer a beautiful and intimate alternative for smaller gatherings. The Ceremonial Building provides a serene setting for funerals, memorial services and family gatherings, accommodating up to 60 guests.
Together, the Crematorium and Ceremonial Building give families a choice between larger, contemporary surroundings and a more personal, intimate setting - both rooted in the natural beauty and spirit of Sewardstone Park.
Daws Meadow Burial Ground
As part of the wider Sewardstone Park grounds, Daws Meadow provides a natural and tranquil complement to the crematorium and ceremonial facilities. Together, these spaces form a single setting where every stage of farewell - from service to committal - can take place in one peaceful location.
Whether choosing cremation, burial or a memorial service, families are assured of the same warmth, care and support throughout.
Sewardstone Park brings together thoughtful architecture, natural beauty and dedicated service to create a peaceful setting for reflection, remembrance and lasting peace. Welcoming to all faiths and beliefs, it offers flexibility for both formal and informal services.
Environmental Commitment
Sustainability and environmental responsibility are at the heart of the crematorium. Modern, energy-efficient technology is designed to minimise emissions and energy use, while advanced filtration systems support a clean, smoke-free process in line with high environmental standards.
The surrounding landscape is enhanced through careful planting and biodiversity initiatives, including wildflower meadows, native trees and natural screening that help preserve the tranquillity of the park.
Together, these measures enable us to serve the community while safeguarding the environment for future generations.
Now Complete
The crematorium is now complete, marking an important new chapter for Sewardstone Park Cemetery & Crematorium. Created with careful attention to quality, sustainability and design integrity, the finished building brings together contemporary architecture, thoughtful facilities and the natural beauty of the surrounding landscape. Families can now hold cremation services here at Sewardstone Park in a calm, dignified and welcoming setting.
Community and Accessibility
Accessibility and consideration for the community have been key priorities throughout the planning and design of the crematorium.
The crematorium includes ample parking, level access throughout and facilities designed to accommodate all visitors, including those with limited mobility or additional needs.
Services are scheduled during daytime hours to minimise local traffic impact, while the layout of the site supports easy navigation and privacy for families during services.
