Remember your loved one with the perfect memorial

Do you have the devastating and difficult decision of how to remember a loved one, how best to keep their memory alive and how others would like to remember that special person?

Lodge Brothers have the most wonderful and largest selection of memorials and headstones in the UK.  Their workmanship is professional and superbly finished.

From the time you enter the Lodge Brothers branch until the memorial is in place you will be treated with the utmost respect and dignity.

They take time and care to ensure that the correct decisions are made with regard to each individual and the memorial chosen.

Every memorial is individually made and can be personalised through slight changes in design. Some of the memorials on offer:

Lawn Memorials & Headstones

A variety of lawn memorials are displayed this page. When choosing a memorial, please remember that you can alter the design to suit your own requirements. They are all individually made and most designs can be made in any stone type.

Classic Memorials & Headstones

Full memorials or kerb set designs are permitted. This does not prevent a client having a smaller memorial such as a vase, tablet or headstone & base design. It allows a lot more flexibility than a lawn section and leads to a greater expression of memorial design.

HOLLAND PARK – LIFESTYLES OF THE RICH AND FAMOUS

Located in western Central London is a haven of peace and tranquility, where the rich and affluent meets romance and nature. Known as Holland Park, the name is given to both the district along with a public park. Famous for its reputation as a fashionable area, notable sights in the district include ages old Victorian townhouses, high class shopping opportunities, and top tier restaurants.

The public park is a lovely area that spans around 54 acres, with a long history. The northern half (approximately) is semi-wild woodland, the central section contains the ruins of Holland House, a great house of England, and the southernmost section is used for sport. Containing a variety of sights, both natural and man-made, Holland Park is a must visit destination during a stay in London.

The grounds of the park feature a famous orangery, which was a staple of fashionable homes during the 17th to 19th centuries. Similar to a greenhouse or conservatory, citrus trees were wintered in tubs under cover for preservation. In addition, there exists a giant chess set (can you say “checkmate”?), cricket pitch, tennis courts, one of the best children’s playgrounds in London, and plenty of proud, strutting peacocks. Also contained within the park is the absolutely beautiful and serene Kyoto Garden; a Japanese garden donated by the Chamber of Commerce of Kyoto in 1991.

The Holland House, which currently lies in ruins, was originally named Cope Castle due to its ownership by diplomat Sir Walter Cope. Created in 1605, the great house has been the residence of many a rich and powerful family; however was sadly largely destroyed by German firebombing during the Blitz in 1940. Today, only the east wing and some ruins of the ground floor still remain.

Read what the expert has to say about party venues

September is usually the last busy party tents for sale month of the season. If you’re still very busy through October and the Christmas market then you is doing very well. There is a change to the way people use marquees during the winter though:

  • Often customers are after gaining a room from the house for a party rather than hosting the whole function outside.
  • Obviously you need to provide plenty of marquee heating
  • Butt the marquee hard up against the house or use a walkway with sides
  • Allow more time to put the marquee up. It could be cold, wet and/or windy and the daylight hours are shorter
  • Allow more maintenance time between jobs, marquees need cleaning and drying unless they’re going straight back out
  • It’s tempting to raise the hire charge of the marquee due to the greater running costs but unfortunately the opposite is usually true, because winter is drastically quieter than summer for parties you often have to offer discounts or incentives to be competitive and get the work.
  • Buy some good waterproofs. We’re quite fortunate in that once the marquee is up we’re generally working in the dry doing all of the interior work but if you’re having to do that in wet clothes life is not fun. Get the marquee up quickly, get all the kit inside then it becomes a normal day whatever the weather outside (assuming you’ve got good quality marquees of course!)
  • We recommend testing any gutter before you leave site anyway but especially do so during the winter
  • If snow is forecast leave heating on very low to prevent it building up on the roof. UK marquees are not designed for snow loading.
  • edit: As the excellent County Marquees pointed out after posting wooden floors are a very popular option during the winter. Not only do they give a good surface but you are raising the height of the floor – a popular (but expensive) solution on soft ground prone to water logging or hard surfaces where water can come back under the sides.      A 6x10m DIY Marquee Two marquees set up as a beer hall (full) A lined DIY Marquee ready for the party A Lined DIY Marquee

In the main erecting winter marquees is a far more relaxed business than summer ones, the company is generally not as busy so you can take your time to get it right and ensure you’ve tried absolutely everything on the nearest sandwich shops menu.
