Mansfield and District Crematorium – A Peaceful Location Ideal for Reflection

Mansfield and District Crematorium offers families a respectful and calm venue for cremation services on the edge of Mansfield.

Situated on Derby Road, the site is surrounded by landscaped grounds and woodland, helping visitors feel they have arrived somewhere removed from the everyday bustle. As a result, the location supports a sense of pause and remembrance.

Due to its easy access from Mansfield town centre, Ashfield and surrounding areas, the crematorium remains convenient for mourners and very popular.

Benefits of the Location

Because the venue is located just off Derby Road (A60) on the outskirts of Mansfield, it benefits from both convenience and quiet. Visitors travelling from Mansfield, Sutton-in-Ashfield, Newark and Sherwood can reach the site with minimal stress.

The grounds are well-maintained and provide a natural backdrop, which helps create a supportive environment for families gathering to say goodbye.

Additionally, ample on-site parking and clear signage reduce arrival concerns and allow guests to focus on the service rather than logistics.

There are a number of options for cremated remains:
