British Slate and Yorkstone Memorials

Here at Baines Memorials we understand the pressures on the environment and carbon footprint heightened awareness. We are very restricted with the materials used for cemeteries and churchyards, with regulations generally stating stone materials must be used without exception.

We responsibly source our memorials from the leading suppliers in the country ensuring the highest quantity. We order in ‘batches’ from our Indian quarry supplies, who are based in Salford Manchester, so they are delivered monthly to us (aiming to reduce carbon emissions for transport).

However, if you want a British sourced stone we have direct contacts with the British quarries. Our slate memorial are so beautiful, with a honed finish and natural strata and striations. We can supply:

Blue slate
Grey Slate
Green slate
Cream Yorkstone
Military Portland stone

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The service from Baines memorials was excellent from start to finish. They helped us with every aspect, the wording advice was most helpful as this isn’t something you do every day. My sister and I absolutely loved the finished result. Thank you

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Mark and Steve offer a very friendly and professional service to what can be quite a daunting experience. They have the time to listen, advise and are both genuine in their approach. The quality of their work is superior, the attention to detail and the ease of making a difficult decision is made easy with their experience. Following the work to my Grandparents memorial, it was without hesitation to contact them to provide a memorial service for my father. The service was timely, reasonably priced and beyond expectations. Great job.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. From the moment we first contacted Baines Memorials, we felt we were in caring, capable hands. Their prompt responses and gentle patience stood out immediately — they never rushed us, even when we had many questions in what was a difficult time for our family. When Mark and Steve visited to view the grave, they were respectful, considerate, and explained clearly all the options for memorials, inscriptions, design choices, and restoration work. Their guidance was neither pushy nor vague — just honest and helpful. The craftsmanship exceeded our expectations. The headstone and inscription were executed with precision and sensitivity; the stonework is of a quality that looks classic but also fresh and well-finished. They also offer additional restoration to the older parts of the memorial, seamlessly blending new and old, and cleaned everything to a very high standard.We are extremly happy
