Park Wood Crematorium

Park Wood Crematorium, nestled on a picturesque hillside in Elland, offers serene and scenic views of the surrounding area. The main chapel, with a seating capacity for 88 people and standing room at the back, provides a spacious setting for services. For larger gatherings, TVs in the foyer enable guests to participate in the service.

The Snowdrop Chapel offers a smaller, more intimate space designed for families and friends to remember infants. The crematorium provides various amenities, including a waiting room for hot and cold drinks, web broadcasts, and recording options (DVD/USB/CD). A hearing loop is available in the service chapel, and there's parking space for up to 60 cars on the right side of the building. 

Park Wood Crematorium also offers accessible facilities such as ramps, toilets, and designated parking spaces for disabled visitors. The facility provides three service options: the Direct service with no attendees, a Simple service for 20 attendees, and a Full service with no attendee restrictions, including the option to extend the service at an additional cost.

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