Headstones come in various shapes and sizes depending on what your family wants and cemetery guidelines. At Tallaght Stone Centre, we specialise in durable granite memorials that stay beautiful even in Ireland’s weather.
Upright Headstones
These are the most popular style nationwide. They offer plenty of space for inscriptions and can be designed with polished, matt, or sandblasted finishes.
Kerb Sets
Kerb sets frame the grave, creating a clean, finished appearance. They allow room for chippings, artificial grass, or flower displays.
Symbolic Heart and Book Stone Options
These memorials offer a softer, symbolic look. They are especially chosen for families seeking something unique.
Plaques and Grave Markers Burial Grounds
Perfect for marking a grave without a large stone. These are durable and customisable.
