Welcome to our stonemasons’ information page. This page is designed to support you while working with us or at one of our cemeteries.
Fact file
To enable us to continue to provide you with updated measurements and specifications as new locations become available, the fact file has been divided into two parts:
Part A: contains all of the information a stonemason requires in order to apply to GMCT for a permit with confidence. It details the process, procedures and policies.
Part B: is a dynamic document that will be constantly updated as new locations become available. Only locations with validated product dimensions are loaded into Part B.
The versions (with links) are below.

Maintenance of memorials
The Right of Interment holder is responsible for maintaining any memorial established in a safe and proper condition.
GMCT is empowered through the Cemeteries and Crematoria Act 2003 to issue directions in relation to the maintenance of memorials and can take actions to make a memorial safe for GMCT staff and visitors. GMCT may seek consent of the Secretary of the Department of Health to repair or remove a memorial and can seek costs and expense recovery from the Right of Interment holder.
