At H Porter & Sons, we work closely with a local stonemason to ensure individual attention to your request and to
achieve a high quality memorial, with which you are fully satisfied.
In many cases it is possible to tailor a memorial exactly to your requirements. We can also advise you on the type of
memorials permitted in certain cemeteries and graveyards and assist with the necessary Cemetery and Churchyard
permits and applications.
This brochure contains just a selection of memorials that are available.
There are a wide range of shapes, stones, colours and sizes that can be sourced, and a printed proof,
prepared by the stonemason, can be given to you before ordering, so that an impression of the final memorial can be gained.
We will give you a fully detailed, no obligation quotation after we have spoken to you about your wishes.
You may find it helpful to visit our offices and look at some of the sample memorials on display.
We also have samples of different stone colours which may help you in your decision-making.
Please note that colours may vary due to granite being a natural substance and samples are provided for guidance only.
Alternative styles of memorial are also available to those illustrated.
Please contact us to make an appointment if you would like to sit down and discuss your requirements.
A fitting tribute to your loved one
