The Council has closed the office receptions at Gornal Wood and Stourbridge Crematorium for the foreseeable future. This has been done in a bid to stop the spread of COVID-19 to administrative staff working at the offices. The offices can still be contacted by telephone as normal Monday to Friday, 9am until 5pm. Alternatively please use the online form below. The Council regrets having to close the office receptions but the decision has been made to help reduce the spread of this virus.
The book of remembrance room will unfortunately be closed on weekends and bank holidays during the government lock down period. An appointment can be made through the office to view any entry that would have been on display in the book during the closure period.

Cemetery and Crematorium Information
Family History & Genealogy Research Service
Bereavement Services now offer a Genealogy Research Service to locate a person that is buried within one of the boroughs cemeteries. The online facility provides both the burial location and grave number.
In addition further information on Researching your family history is available from the Dudley Archives and Local History web pages, and an online archive of historic mapping and aerial photography is available.
Remembrance Services
A service of remembrance is held in the Crematorium Chapel at Christmastide. Everyone is welcome to attend. Notices are placed in the local press near to the date, as well as on this website – alternatively you may enquire at the office.
The service takes approximately 45 minutes and after the ceremony all of the buildings are open for inspection. Members of staff are on hand to explain the various aspects of cremation and to answer any questions you may have.
Reserve a place
Due to the popularity of the Christmas service, admission is by ticket only, available free of charge from the Crematorium office a few weeks prior to the event. Please contact us using the details below to reserve a ticket.
Open Days
Occasionally, we also hold an open day, which will be advertised in the same way.
