Charnock Richard Crematorium

About Us

Charnock Richard Crematorium sits in peaceful surroundings in the countryside of Chorley, and caters to the local community across Lancashire.

The Crematorium welcomes both religious and non-religious ceremonies.

Charnock Richard has modern facilities such as a state of the art music system at the chapel and a large cremator which can accommodate large coffins. Families can request their choice of funeral music or make use of the live organ at the chapel. The chapel is also equipped with a hearing loop and public access system. Every service may last 45 minutes, but this can be extended on payment of an extra fee. Private memorial services can also be organised if requested in advance and weekend services can also be arranged for an extra fee.

Crematorium staff are able to advise families on all aspects of arranging a funeral and answer questions on memorial options. To arrange a visit to Charnock Richard Crematorium or to the memorial garden, call now to make an appointment.
