Welsh Slate Memorials

Honouring loved ones

Over the years we have established strong relationships with experienced memorial masons around the country, working together to create a beautiful lasting tribute for loved ones.

This Welsh slate memorial stone is a stunning canvas ready to be hand carved by the skilful Artisan Memorials from Canterbury.

Welsh slate has been used as Memorial Headstones for centuries, known for their longevity and enduring harsh weather making it perfect for the British climate.

The natural beauty of Welsh slate creates a stunning contrast for intricate carving. Memorials from Welsh slate offer several advantages over imported headstones, due to their resilience, natural beauty and local sourcing which reduces the environmental impact associated with transporting imported materials. We support the local quarrying industry as all of our Welsh slate slabs are sourced from local quarries within 32 miles radius to our workshop in Chwilog, North Wales.

Due to its durability and resistance to staining, Welsh Slate Headstones require minimal maintenance, with occasional wiping to remove dust or debris ensuring they retain their beauty for generation.

We offer the highest quality material and workmanship whilst cutting, shaping and polishing headstones to our customers request and bespoke sizes and shapes are available - please contact us to discuss your requirements. We can also recommend experienced memorial masons who are skilled in working with stone, creating beautiful carvings that looks amazing on a Welsh slate headstone.
