Langmeads New Exeter Showroom

Thursday, September 11th, 2008
Having had their showroom and workshop by the gates of Exeter’s Higher Cemetery for over a hundred years, Langmead has now moved its Exeter showroom to a new shop on the Pinhoe Road.

“We have wanted to move for some time.” says Keith Marsh “It has been difficult to find the right premises but we are now in a great position next door to Blooms, one of Exeter’s most popular florists.”

The new showroom, which opened at the beginning of September, features a large display of memorials ranging from headstones and cremation plaques to vases and statues.  These are available in a wide variety of materials including granite, marble and English stone.  Memorials for the home are also on display including sundials and birdbaths for keeping cremated ashes in the garden and ceramic photoframes.

There is plenty of room to park at either showroom.

Memorial Garden, Exeter

Monday, September 8th, 2008
The Garden was designed and built jointly by the City’s Bereavement Department headed by Manager Ian Quance and Langmead Memorials. Building work commenced in February 08 overseen by Cemetery Superintendant Gordon Lang and Langmead’s Works Manager Matt Keyte.  Everything went well and the Garden was opened on the 23rd of May by The Lord Mayor of Exeter, Councillor Paul Smith. 
The ceremony also included the sealing of a time capsule.

The Garden offers six options for cremated remains, a lawned area for the strewing of ashes with an inscribed granite plaque placed on the central ’eternal flame’ granite feature, standard or tea roses with an inscribed green granite leaf, individual or ‘wheel’ gardens with ’star galazy ‘or’ cats eye granite’ memorials and an area of ‘blue pearl’ granite desk tablets.

 
“The Garden is already popular with the people of Exeter and it has been a pleasure to work with such an enthusiastic bereavement department” says Langmead’s Keith Marsh.
