About Us

Eltham Crematorium, also known as Falconwood Crematorium, is the only cremation facility to serve bereaved families in the Royal Borough of Greenwich.

The crematorium, located next to the Eltham cemetery, offers two non-denominational chapels which can comfortably host large groups. The North Chapel can seat up to 100 guests, with space for an additional 100 guests to stand. The West Chapel has seating for 78, with room for a further 50 people to stand. Music is available in the form of an organist, or sound system which is preloaded with a number of popular funeral songs.

In 2014 Eltham Crematorium was awarded gold from the Institute of Cemetery and Crematorium Management, in recognition of their compassionate and professional service. A tour of the facility can be arranged with staff and the memorial courts and gardens of remembrance are open to the public daily. The Eltham Crematorium also has an in-house florist, as well as refreshment services within the grounds in The Pavilion.
