A Wide Range of Headstone Types to Suit Every Requirement
Traditional Headstones
​
Our traditional headstones remain a popular choice for Irish graveyards. These designs are timeless, dignified, and crafted to comply fully with cemetery regulations. Available in a range of shapes and sizes, they can be personalised with inscriptions, motifs, and religious symbols.
Granite Headstones
​
Granite is renowned for its durability, low maintenance, and elegant appearance. We offer granite headstones in a wide variety of colours, including black, grey, blue pearl, and silver grey. Polished or honed finishes provide long-lasting beauty and clarity of inscription.
Marble Headstones
​
For families seeking a classic and refined aesthetic, marble headstones offer a soft, traditional appearance. Carefully selected and expertly finished, marble memorials provide a graceful tribute with timeless appeal.
Kerbed Memorials
​
Kerbed memorials define the grave space with a surrounding kerb, offering a strong visual presence and additional space for decorative elements such as chippings, flower holders, or vases. These memorials are ideal for families seeking a more substantial tribute.
Cross Headstones
​
We create Celtic crosses, Latin crosses, and custom cross designs, crafted in granite or marble. These memorials combine spiritual symbolism with skilled stonework and are particularly suited to Irish heritage and tradition.
Children’s and Baby Memorials
​
We approach the creation of children’s memorials with exceptional sensitivity. These designs are carefully proportioned, delicately engraved, and fully customisable with motifs, carvings, or personal inscriptions that reflect love and remembrance.
