Our crematorium and memorial grounds

South London Crematorium has been a place of remembrance for the families of Lambeth and Wandsworth since 1936. We’re proud to deliver every funeral service with compassion and care. Our memorial grounds reflect both the history and diversity of the area, offering a home to notable burials, Commonwealth War Graves and a dedicated War Memorial. Services are held in St George’s Chapel, and St David’s Chapel houses our Books of Remembrance.
