About this crematorium
Birmingham (Yardley) is operated by Birmingham City Council. It opened in 1952.
Birmingham City Council’s other two crematoria, Lodge Hill and Sutton Coldfield, share this same fee schedule, so the standard fee is £997 wherever your service is booked. Birmingham (Perry Barr) is a separate, privately operated (Dignity) crematorium elsewhere in the city with its own, higher fee schedule (£1,200 standard) – check which site your funeral director has booked before comparing prices.
