Amber Valley Crematorium
Amber Valley Memorial Park and Crematorium is situated on Derby Road (B6179) between Alfreton and Swanwick, thoughtfully designed to harmonize with the serene green landscape between these two villages. The Garden of Remembrance exclusively employs British stone for memorials, seamlessly blending with the picturesque Derbyshire countryside.
This memorial park and crematorium offers various services, including cremation, natural burial, and traditional burial. The natural burial section provides a non-traditional interment method that honors nature's course without visible memorials, a choice increasingly in demand.
The chapel, accommodating 100 people, expands to accommodate 200 when incorporating the foyer and even caters to services exceeding 400 by piping the ceremony outdoors under the porte-cochere. Equipped for cremations, burials, or memorial services, it features amenities like a hearing loop, Obitus media system, organ, public address system, plasma TVs for eulogies or presentations, and webcams for online viewing.
The integrated memorial park offers essential infrastructure, including safe access, a comfortable chapel, unique celebration of life facilities, extensive parking, and restroom facilities.
Please remember: you need to book an appointment at the Amber Valley Crematorium in order to discuss your plans. We’d be happy to help you do this, so feel free to get in touch with one of our personal advisers.
