Memorials of Distinction have over 35 years’ experience in stonemasonry and serving the county of Bedfordshire, including Dunstable. Our expert team will craft the perfect memorial gravestones for your loved ones, whether it be a full kerbed memorial, cremation plaque or a bespoke headstone. We have a wide range of products available to ensure you have exactly the right tribute.
There’s a lot to think about when planning a burial or cremation, but a good first step forward is choosing the location, then everything else can stem from that. This is because many cemeteries and crematoriums have rules about which bespoke gravestones, traditional headstones or memorial statues are permitted. Once you’ve found the special location for a final resting place, then we can support you as you choose a fitting tribute.
The historic county of Bedfordshire is easily accessible for friends and family to visit and offers so much, from pretty riverside villages to beautiful countryside, and all just a short journey away from London.
You’d be forgiven for thinking all cemeteries are the same until you get researching. The location you choose within Bedfordshire will depend on so many things — whether your loved one wanted a specific spot, whether the location is easily accessible by car, and whether you’re looking for a religious or non-religious ceremony. Perhaps you’d like a location near to the river in the town of Bedford, or you might want a more rural location, like the pretty, riverside market town of Sandy.
To simplify things for you, we’ve put information on each crematorium and cemetery from Google Maps into the interactive map below so you can find what you need quickly and easily. Just hover over each pin to see more information.
Yes, if you wanted to fill the kerbs with soil and plants or buy your own chippings, we can leave this area empty.
If the particular shape or style of memorial you would like is not in our standard collection, we will be happy to review your proposal for a bespoke design. Whether it is just swapping one type of vase or grave statue for another or creating a whole new design, we have the expertise to guide you through it. Call or email us to discuss in more detail.
Photoplaques are a great way to include a picture of your loved one on their headstone, giving you the chance to see their face every time you visit their place of rest. However, there are several ways that you can still include meaningful images on their headstone. For example, you could choose a portrait etching or a rose design.
