Visitors travelling by car to Thornhill Cemetery and Crematorium, or Northern Cemetery, are advised to allow additional time for their journey. Highway improvements are being carried out on Thornhill Road, close to the cemetery entrance, and temporary traffic lights are in place.
  Cremations

Ashes temporarily held at the crematorium

We can keep the cremated remains safe at Thornhill for a 4 week period to give families more time to reach a decision.

It is usually a good idea to make an appointment with the Enquiries Office at Thornhill to go through the options if this is something you are unsure about.
