Crematorium information

Located in the quiet countryside of Derbyshire, Trent Valley Crematorium opened in July 2018. The crematorium was built to serve the surroundings families of Derbyshire and to create a peaceful and serene place to remember loved ones.

Our modern, fully air conditioned chapel lets in natural light and overlooks the gardens and our infinity pool with a floor to ceiling window. The chapel can seat up to 140 people and is accessible to all. To the side of the chapel is a comfortable waiting area overlooking our reflection pool. We provide a state of the art sound system with the ability to upload music, voice recordings, visual tributes and live streaming.

For large congregations the waiting and reception area can accommodate an additional 200 people standing. Mourners in this area will be able to see and hear the service on a large screen via our sound system.

Our chapel is multi-faith and we can help you arrange the service according to your cultural and religious needs.

The crematorium also has parking, access for the less-abled, accessible toilets and a hearing loop system.

The landscaped gardens provide a tranquil and comforting environment for quiet contemplation in which to remember loved ones, offering scattering, plaques and private gardens. Our dedicated memorial team are here to support you in your choice of memorial for you.
