There are many crematoria across London and the surrounding areas. The right choice might depend on the chapel, the grounds, the length of the service, accessibility or the journey for the people attending.
We've brought together 27 crematoria and four ceremony venues, with photographs, locations and links to further information. Poetic Endings can arrange a funeral at any of these places, regardless of where you live or where the person has died. Ceremony venues are clearly identified: they offer a place for the funeral, while any cremation takes place at a crematorium. At GreenAcres parks, burial in the grounds is also possible.
If somewhere appeals to you, we recommend visiting before making your decision.

You are free to choose whichever crematorium suits the funeral. It doesn't have to be the nearest, or the one most often used in your neighbourhood. It can be worth comparing a few places before deciding.
Yes. You don't have to use the crematorium closest to your home or to where the person died. We can help you explore the options and make arrangements at crematoria across London and the surrounding areas.
Often, yes. Many crematoria can arrange visits to the chapel and grounds. We recommend checking with the venue in advance so you can see the space without interrupting a funeral.
Service times vary. Some crematoria offer a shorter early-morning service; others allow extra time to be booked. The total booking also needs to allow for entering and leaving the chapel, so it's worth checking the time actually available for the ceremony.
No. Crematorium charges depend on the venue, time and service requested. We can explain the separate crematorium fee and our funeral director's fees, and provide a clear written estimate before you decide.
Use the map to get a sense of the locations. It may not include every venue in this directory; follow individual directions links for the most accurate route and entrance.
A funeral ceremony can take place in a glasshouse, gallery, garden or somewhere that held personal meaning. Explore our guide to alternative funeral venues across London.
