Memorial Plaques and Memorial Stones
by Rustic Stone

Rustic Stone Memorials serve as an informal, unique memory preservation of your loved one. Our engraved memorials are as individual as the deceased. Our memorial stones, like people, no two can be exactly alike.

Our unique memorials are perfect for the garden or memorial area to mark a grave or where ashes were scattered, a spot in the garden that the person loved to spend time in or even where a memorial tree was planted. They are less conspicuous than a large formal memorial stone and posses natural beauty.

Memorial Plaques and Freestanding Memorial Stones

Our slate memorials can either be flat for wall mounting or laying flat on a bed of gravel or on top of a grave, or can be thick based to free stand. For a more permanent fixture, or with the larger sized freestanding stones we offer a free service where we drill stainless steel studs into the base of the stone so that they can be mounted into the ground with concrete / cement or even mounted onto a plinth (we can supply slate plinths also at an extra cost).

How we choose Memorial Stones and Plaques

All our stones are meticulously hand picked from a quarry in North Wales. The Paddlestone memorials are from various countrywide suppliers as are the sand and limestone plaques. We check for cracks and sound surfaces before shipping back our workshop in Surrey.

Maintaining Rustic Memorial Plaques and Stones

They will not rot or tarnish as wooden memorials or metal can. A stone memorial requires only minimal maintenance. You may need to raise your flat memorial stone slightly off the earth to protect it from frost damage in exposed areas. We recommend a layer of gravel underneath to give your memorial some protection.

In Memory of Loved Ones

Our memorial marker stones and plaques are fully personalised to your specification so that you can preserve the memory of your loved one. We have access to thousands of fonts and art images - you are welcome to send your own artwork and we will use it if possible. You could even add a short memorial poem on some stone or even a sample of the person / child's handwriting or drawings. All lettering can be painted with your choice of colour or just left as a natural etched / engraved finish.

How we price a Memorial Stone or Memorial Plaque

Pricing is based on the size of the stone - not amount of lettering (within reason) and images are extra. Some of the pictured examples have the price and dimensions on the page that we charged for that individual stone. If you would like a price please contact us and we will supply a photograph of the stone that we select that seems to suit the needs and overlay your text and image (if any) over it and email it to you for approval - with dimensions and full cost, including delivery. Payment will only be taken when you are entirely satisfied with what we send you to approve.
