about us.
Set In Stone is a family run local business, started initially in 2000. We first started making memorials in the south oxfordshire area and quickly became very established. We are proud to say we have supplied stone all over the UK and abroad.
Following some very difficult times around the time of the big credit crunch, we reluctantly sold the business. That company had a new name, and traded for several years but did not keep up the high standards we set and as a result finally closed down.
We then decided to make a comeback, with our name and set up again. We made a small number of memorials in year 1. Then in year 2 we started to do very well. This enabled us to move to much larger premises, buy new machinery, and invest heavily in our online, and face to face presence.
Today, we are now one of the leading memorial suppliers in the oxfordshire area.
We have a trained fully qualified stonemason as a company director, and very high standards.
We are NAMM Registered, and fix according to the NAMM national standards.

Afternoon,

You made the whole process stress free, and the finished article is top quality.
