Choosing a Headstone or Memorial

Selecting a suitable monument or memorial as a lasting tribute – literally cast in stone – for a loved one who has died, an event that needs to be remembered, or a site that should be honoured, can be a challenging task.

With our experience we are able to help narrow down and clarify the choices for you, ensuring the stone memorial or monument will comply with all the official criteria, as well as health and safety regulations, attached to the location where it is to be permanently placed.

Most importantly we can discuss your preferences and make suggestions in keeping with your taste and the wishes of all concerned in terms of the memorial’s type, material, size, shape, style, finish, decoration, inscription, font type and all the other elements involved.

As a starting point we invite you to browse through our online brochure to see examples of our work. Please get in touch if you have any questions – we’ll be happy to advise you with no obligation.

We would be pleased to consult with you on the telephone or at your home or workplace. You are always welcome to visit our memorial stone workshop in Trowbridge, where you can view our monumental masons at work.

Hear from some of our lovely customers

Jason and Jackie, we held our rededication service in the memorial Garden at 29 Regiment RLC, on Saturday 11th March 2023. Air Vice Marshall Richard Hill CBE RAF laid a wreath at the memorial Plaque. Without exception everyone present commented on the most magnificent work you had completed on the plaque. It was truly magnificent. On behalf of The President Air Vice Marshal Richard Hill, The Chairman Brigadier Jo Chestnutt, and all members of the MCA and personally from me, we wish to express our sincere thanks for your craftmanship in delivery of such a high standard of stone masonry on our memorial plaque. Very much appreciated.

Dear Sir/madam and everyone at James Long Masons, I would like to thank you all for the wonderful and first class service that you all provide. The care and compassion shown to me when I came to your premises to enquire about a headstone for my parents grave was very, very much appreciated, thank you. The quality and standard of the craftsmanship of the headstone is absolutely superb, I’m very, very pleased with it and I know my parents would be too. Once again, very many thanks for the wonderful service that you provide and very kindest regards.

I am writing to thank you all SO SO much for all your wonderful help and support. I cannot thank you all enough for all that you have done for us - and especially for the tribute that you have made for my dear dear John. You said that you would do your best to get it done in time for his birthday, and you did - bless you all. You don't know just HOW much that has helped us as a family (especially me), to honour John. He was one AMAZING lovely man, and I cannot thank you enough for all your support in our journey.
Bev Webb
On behalf of my sister and myself and others concerned, we all would like to thank you very much for all that you have done for my father’s headstone incorporating my late mothers name to it. It looks and is absolutely brilliant and we would recommend your work to anyone in the future. We thank you once again.
