Cemeteries and crematoria serving Shepherd’s Bush
Although we’re funeral directors in Shepherds Bush, we work with cemeteries and crematoria across the UK. You are free to choose any location for a burial or cremation, although the rates will vary for non residents.
But usually, when somebody dies in Shepherd’s Bush, families will choose a local cemetery or crematorium. There will be ties to the area or there may be other family members already buried or interned there. And, of course, local Shepherd’s Bush residents will benefit from the residents’ rates offered by the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham.
The cemeteries and crematoria serving the Shepherds Bush area include:
Mortlake Cemetery
