Garden of Remembrance
Magdalen Cemetery, Gorleston-on-Sea, located at Great Yarmouth and Gorleston Crematorium
The Garden of remembrance is a peaceful, tranquil place, where you can take time to gather your thoughts and reflect. During summer months there is delightful aroma from the roses in bloom. Landscaping, flowers, plants and trees are maintained year-round by our dedicated gardeners.
You are welcome to place floral tributes in the flower beads. They will, however, be removed regularly by the gardeners to preserve the soil and the beauty of the grounds.
Rose Trees and Shrub Dedications
A beautiful range of established shrubs and rose trees in the garden can be dedicated to the memory of your loved one. Dedications are initially for a ten-year period. You may renew the dedication for a further ten years, and the renewals are ongoing.
Sandstone Tower
Located in the serenity of the garden, this hexagonal tower can house a black granite plaque with a gold inscription dedication of up to six lines.
