Materials and Brief Description
Italian marble from the Appenine mountains of Carrara, North West Italy, is the classical material for memorialisation. It can be supplied either in White or Dove Grey.
High quality granites from all parts of the globe. These are extremely hardwearing and will accept a high polish. Because of the large diversity of colours on offer, not all can be stocked.
An extension to delivery times should be expected on some colours.
Designs can be altered to meet your individual needs.

Marble Headstones
Marble Headstones and Base only designsNS02
Marble. A hand carved angel sitting over a hand sculptured shaped book. The base has a hole in each corner for a flower container.

All our marble headstones are made from fine Italian white marble. The white and light-grey colours of marble help create gravestones
that look peaceful & serene. Its long-lasting but relatively soft quality allows it to be delicately carved by hand.
Marble is a softer stone than granite and is therefore ideal for sculpture and carving. It should be noted that marble is porous and will weather over time causing the white appearance to age. This is a natural process which can be slowed down by regular cleaning.
NS06
Dove Grey. A shaped headstone. The double rebates and the hand carved wild rose panel, together create an elegant memorial.
NS04
Marble. An ogee top headstone with a dog rose carved in each corner. This is sitting on a shaped base with a centre hole for a flower container.

A bespoke memorial is undoubtedly one of the best and most unique ways to commemorate a life. Our bespoke memorial stones put every aspect of the design into your own hands, meaning that the result is exactly what your family member or friend would want.
A memorial is the commemoration of a person’s life, it is the most challenging dedication to create. The memorials in this brochure are designed to meet the needs of most people but we realise they won’t meet everybody’s. We are therefore pleased to offer a design service to match any memorial you may have seen or to create something unique.

Renovations Memorial GuaranteeOver time the traditional porous materials used for memorials can be
effected by the weather. The once beautiful stone can become stained and dirty, the inscription worn and illegible. In our hands we can restore this to its
former glory.
We guarantee that all memorials supplied will be of good workmanship and sound materials.
Over time the traditional porous materials used for memorials can be effected by the weather. The once beautiful stone can become stained and dirty, the inscription worn and illegible. In our hands we can restore this to its former glory.
By carefully and sympathetically cleaning the memorial stone, re-gilding the lettering and refixing it using modern anchoring techniques, we can reinstate it close to its original condition. There are rare occasions where the memorial is in such a poor state of repair that it will prove too expensive to renovate. In this case we will offer guidance on the alternatives available.
Please contact us for a free, no-obligation quote. We can usually provide this from photographs.
New Southgate Cemetery and Crematorium Ltd guarantees subject to the conditions stated below, that should any memorial supplied by the said firm prove to be faulty with regards to material within 50 years of the memorial being fixed in the cemetery, the memorial will be made good or, if this is not possible, replace without any expense to the purchaser.
Conditions
1. As natural materials vary from time to time in colour and texture this
Guarantee relates only to the type and soundness of the material and
not to its colour or texture.
2. This Guarantee shall not apply to any painting or gilding on the
memorial or to engravings infilled with lead. It should be noted that lead
lettering is normally a more long-lasting form of inscription although
this will depend on the position of the grave and the level of maintenance.
3. This Guarantee shall not apply to any damage caused by a third party,
and shall become invalid if the memorial is removed or disturbed or
otherwise worked upon by anyone other than the Seller.
4. This Guarantee applies only where an order clearly stating the type of
material, the finish of the memorial and the full text of the inscription
has been signed by the Purchaser and received by the Seller.
5. This Guarantee will not apply to damage to candle boxes where it has
been caused by excessive heat from oil lamps, candles or other
burning objects.
6. All new memorials will be levelled once, without charge, up to the first
two years following the date of completion of the order.
This Guarantee is in addition to, and not in lieu of, any statutory or common law rights vested
in the purchaser.
