Refurbishment Works at Linn Crematorium

Following the recent project of refurbishment at Daldowie Crematorium which was completed in 2021, the programme of refurbishment to the council's crematoria will continue and work to refurbish the Linn Crematorium will commence on the 15 July 2024.

This work will include a full upgrade to all the electrical and heating systems as well as the complete redecoration of both chapels and all of the public areas within the B listed building.

To allow this work to be carried out it is necessary to  initially close the building for a period of three months, to carry out essential works on, the larger of the two chapels, St Mungo's. This means that the whole site will be closed from the 15 July 2024 until the end of October 2024. After this initial work is completed  St Mungo's will re-open for use with the refurbishment continuing within other areas of the facility.

In addition, as part of this initial closure, there will be no access to the grounds of Linn Crematorium this will include access to the Memorial Rose Garden, Memorial Sanctums and the Baby Ashes Memorial Garden. We would like to apologise for the inconvenience this may cause and we can assure families that areas will be protected while these important works are carried out. Access to the Books of Remembrance will be facilitated within the adjacent Linn Cemetery to allow for viewing of the books to continue.

During this time we have made arrangements to increase the number of services available, each day, at Daldowie Crematorium.
