About
Burgess Memorials was founded in 1839 by James Jacob Burgess to compliment the family funeral business. However the family’s roots in the Hatfield Community are documented back as far as 1700 when the family were clock makers, beehive makers and general builders.
Burgess Memorials are proud to have been part of the community for over 165 years. The family name brings with it a reputation of quality craftsmanship, reliability and attention to detail which we believe is unsurpassed in the Hertfordshire area.
We strive as a family business to provide a personal service where we aim to use our skills and knowledge in the Memorials profession to give you the help and assistance needed to choose, design and manufacture an appropriate and fitting memorial to your loved ones that we hope will stand as a lasting act of remembrance.
The services offered are of a high standard and offer a wide choice of memorials which can be tailored to your individual requirements and specifications, no matter if they are conventional or not.
We also work for a number of corporate clients, including:
- Arsenal Football Club
