AJ Standard Ogee

Headstones, Traditional

This Ogee Headstone is our standard memorial and is also our best seller. The main reason for its popularity is due to the fact it can be made into any size, thus supporting the compliance with any cemetery sizing regulation throughout the UK.

FYI: This standard headstone can also be designed with a straight top.

For families and loved ones who are wanting to start with a blank canvas, this is the perfect Headstone. From this standard starting point we can discuss with you the adding of photographs, beading, etched designs, different shapes, styles of carving, colour of granite, kerb sets and wording…. the choice really is endless, and we’re here to help.

So, from this standard Ogee Headstone to a bespoke memorial, whatever you’re looking for, every shape size and colour can be catered for. Albert Jones Memorials have been experts in designing, fixing & cleaning headstones since 1930 and are here to support you through this process every step of the way.

If you would like expert advice, please book a ‘Personal Touch‘ meeting with us today.

Cemetery Fees:

Every cemetery and churchyard will have their own unique fee to have a memorial placed within their location.

This again is exacerbated by differing fees for each borough.

As burial ground fees are not a standard price throughout the district, feel free to contact us directly with the potential location of the grave, and we will be able to swiftly advise you of this additional cost.

 

Delivery:

FREE delivery within 20 miles of workshop.

However, please note, after this distance, delivery of your stone will be charged at £1 per mile each way.

 

Insurance:

Our Headstone Insurance policy is regarded as an ‘all risks’ policy and is used by our clients who seek protection against a whole spectrum of unfortunate events.

Are you the grave owner?

At this point the grave owner will need to sign a grave owners authority form; this must be signed by a living person!

If the rightful owner (name on the deeds who originally bought the grave) is now deceased, then the family must get in touch with the cemetery office and change the deeds ownership to one of the family or next of kin.

Albert Jones Memorials are here to support you at this difficult time, feel free to contact us directly as we appreciate this can become rather confusing.
