Memorial Hall - Books of Remembrance, Columbarium and Flower Room

The Books of Remembrance can be seen in the Memorial Hall building, along with a digital book where any date can be viewed on the screen.

Additional seating has been introduced along with light background music and lighting to the book cabinets.

The internal Flower Room is located in the Columbarium room adjacent to the Books of Remembrance.

Cut flowers may be left in the vases provided (for use inside the building only).

The flowers are monitored daily and once they are past their best will be removed.

Flowers may also be left on the external Kernow Flower Terrace, which is a short distance from the Columbarium, or you can place flowers in an area of your choice within the Gardens of Remembrance.

Please remember to remove any plastic bags the flowers may be wrapped in to protect our wildlife.
