West Wiltshire Crematorium
West Wiltshire Crematorium, located in Semington, Wiltshire, is a privately owned facility set in 10 acres of peaceful countryside. Overlooking the Kennet and Avon canals, its natural stone and timber buildings blend into tranquil surroundings, including a well-tended Garden of Remembrance.
Positioned just 100 yards from the A350 and A361 roundabouts, the crematorium is easily accessible, with parking for 80 cars and two disabled bays. The modern chapel, accommodating 96 seated and 100 standing, features advanced audio-visual equipment, a porte-cochere, and facilities for the hearing impaired. Funeral services, personalised to various beliefs, are scheduled every 45 minutes, with options for extended services at an additional cost.
Haycombe Crematorium opened in 1961 and is the sole crematorium in Bath and North East Somerset Council's area. The modern building, situated at the end of Haycombe Cemetery, boasts well-maintained grounds with pockets of wildflowers, while the chapel's glass wall provides picturesque views of the Englishcombe valley.
