Worthing Crematorium, Memorial Gardens and the Remembrance Cross at Christmas

Worthing Crematorium is pleased to announce that the painted Remembrance Cross on the lawn outside the Muntham Chapel entrance is now in place. The cross is to enable family and friends to place their floral tributes for loved ones at Christmas.
There is no need to contact the office or make any special arrangements, the memorial garden and grounds are open to the public at all times.
The Hall of Remembrance which houses the Book of Remembrance is open all week from around 9am to 5pm.
We look forward to welcoming you here soon.
(The Remembrance Cross will be removed on 8th January 2026).
