EXPERIENCE ACROSS 4 DECADES
ESTABLISHED IN 1993
NVQ MEMORIAL FIXER
CUSTOM HEADSTONES CRAFTED WITH CARE
I create headstones and memorials that are more than markers—they are lasting tributes to loved ones. Based in West Auckland, I hand craft memorials in marble, granite, and sandstone. Every piece reflects skills acquired across four decades, with attention to detail and quality craftsmanship. My headstone cleaning service ensures existing memorials remain pristine while preserving inscriptions.
TRADITIONAL LAWN MEMORIALS
Traditional lawn memorials are very much suited for both cemetery and churchyard and can be carved in either traditional or contemporary styles of your choice - anything is possible.
"Never rushed but as sure as the sunrise"
ARTISAN MONOLITHIC MEMORIALS
Ancient monolithic memorials bring an elegance and durability which stand the test of time.
​
Granite provides exceptional durability with either a polished or honed appearance that withstands harsh weather conditions for decades. Its strength allows for detailed engraving while resisting erosion, making it ideal for a long-lasting, low-maintenance memorial.
SANDSTONE CHURCHYARD STYLE HEADSTONES
Sandstone gravestones offer a warm, natural look with a traditional feel that blends seamlessly into churchyards and heritage settings. Its textured surface carries a soft, rustic character that many families find comforting. Sandstone is perfect for hand crafted inscriptions and creates a memorial with an organic, earthy presence.
TAILORED MEMORIAL DESIGN SERVICES
I provide a fully bespoke monumental sculptor service, allowing you to customise every detail of your headstone. From material selection—marble, granite, or sandstone—to intricate letter carving, I ensure each memorial reflects your wishes. Every design is crafted with precision, combining artistry and durability to create a unique tribute that celebrates and remembers your loved one. To discuss your requirements, get in touch and I will guide you through creating a meaningful, lasting memorial.
AUCKLAND MEMORIALS MASTER MASONS’ EXPERT CRAFTSMANSHIP
As a passed mason of Durham Cathedral, I hand craft every detail using traditional and modern techniques that machines cannot replicate. As well as serving Bishop Auckland and the surrounding areas, I also cover Northern England and North Yorkshire ensuring each headstone is visually stunning, durable, and respectful of the life it commemorates. Free of charge workshop consultations and home visits available without obligation. No salesmen, no hard sell, just a genuine conversation with the mason himself.
DURABLE MEMORIALS THAT LAST
Crafted from premium materials, including marble, granite, and sandstone, my headstones are crafted with love, passion and attention to detail. With careful attention to detail, I provide hand crafted inscriptions and designs that reflect the personality and life of your loved one. At Auckland Memorials Master Masons, every memorial is a lasting, heartfelt tribute.
