Ipswich Crematorium

Ipswich Crematorium

Ipswich Crematorium, situated on Cemetery Lane in the heart of Ipswich, offers a tranquil setting with two Gardens of Rest and the Temple of Remembrance. The West Chapel, adorned with a traditional aesthetic, accommodates approximately 105 seated guests with disabled access and facilities. The chapel features a state-of-the-art Obitus music system, a traditional pipe organ, external audiovisual capabilities, and an induction hearing loop. A waiting room with toilet access and a dedicated chapel attendant ensure a supportive environment for funeral services.

The Temple of Remembrance, open every day, houses the Book of Remembrance and various memorials, providing a space for reflection. Floral tributes in the West Chapel remain on display for a week, and the Temple accepts cut flowers in provided vases. The Gardens of Rest, while closed for scatterings/interments, add to the serene atmosphere of Ipswich Crematorium, creating a peaceful place for remembrance and contemplation.

Please remember: you need to book an appointment at the Ipswich 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.
