Organising a Headstone for Ashes Interment with Quantock Funeral Directors

At Quantock Funeral Directors, we understand that organising a fitting memorial for your loved one is a deeply personal and important decision. After the interment of ashes, many families wish to mark the resting place with a headstone that reflects the life and legacy of their loved one. We are here to support you every step of the way, ensuring that this process is as seamless and stress-free as possible.


We work closely with skilled local stonemasons, who are experienced in creating beautiful, bespoke headstones that honour the memory of your loved one. Whether you are looking for a traditional design or something more unique, our stonemasons will craft a headstone that meets both your wishes and the specific regulations of the cemetery or graveyard where the ashes are interred.


Understanding Cemetery and Graveyard Regulations


It’s important to note that every cemetery or churchyard has its own regulations concerning the types of headstones and materials allowed. These rules can vary greatly, from the size and shape of the memorial to the type of stone permitted. At Quantock Funeral Directors, we have extensive knowledge of local cemeteries and graveyards in Taunton and the surrounding areas. We ensure that the headstone you choose complies with all necessary guidelines, saving you time and avoiding any potential complications.


Our local stonemasons are well-versed in these regulations and work meticulously to create headstones that not only meet the necessary criteria but also provide a lasting and meaningful tribute to your loved one.


Personalised Headstones for Ashes Interment


Choosing a headstone is a deeply personal decision, and we are here to guide you through the process. We offer a wide range of options, from simple yet elegant designs to fully customised memorials that reflect the unique personality of the individual. Our stonemasons use high-quality materials, ensuring that your chosen memorial will stand the test of time and provide a place for future generations to remember and reflect.


Whether you prefer granite, limestone, or another material, we can advise on what will be suitable and long-lasting, while also meeting the specific requirements of the cemetery or graveyard. In addition, we can guide you on the appropriate inscriptions and any other personal touches you may wish to include.
