About this crematorium

Stockport Cemetery and Crematorium is operated by Stockport Council and has served the local community since 1934. It shares its site with Stockport’s borough cemetery. Management of the cemetery and crematorium was contracted out in 2003 (to the Co-op Group, then transferred to Dignity in 2015). The council’s own decision of 14 September 2023 brought both back into council control when that agreement expired.
