STEPNELL Building and Civil Engineering

Charnock Richard Crematorium, Chorley

Design and build of a complete ‘turnkey’ Crematorium on a site identified and owned by the Local Authority including all landscaping, fitting out and installation of crematory equipment as part of a public/private partnership with Chorley Borough Council.  Development works included significant highway alterations carried out under a Section 278 with Lancashire County Council.

This new and tasteful facility provides excellent, comfortable, clean, welcoming and modern facilities which are situated in the open and beautifully peaceful countryside at Charnock Richard.
The public areas are furnished to the highest standard and have the feel of serene comfort as one enters the foyer. This is heightened by the use of colours, mainly blues and lemons, which produce an appropriate effect when combined with the solid English oak doors and beech chapel furnishings.
 
Stepnell is fully aware of the need for the utmost sensitivity and respect when working in and around a functioning Crematorium and or Cemetery.

The loss of a loved one is one of the most traumatic experiences in life and it is a matter of basic human decency to ensure that any construction work does not interfere or acerbate the grieving process.

These projects require a high level of finish, and Stepnell’s joinery shop is capable of producing bespoke work to the necessary standard on similar projects.
