This crematorium is the major part of Bolton's funeral service. All faiths that permit cremation can take advantage of the facility, and witnessing of any part is possible by prior arrangement.
Due to a larger number of requests here are basic road directions from junction 5 of the M61 which is the closest motorway junction. If heading southbound (towards Manchester), come off junction 5 and go left on the A58 to Bolton.
If heading northbound (towards Preston), come off at junction 5, and go right on the A58 to Bolton. This drops down a hill, keep in the left hand lane and turn left at the traffic lights, by the petrol station, signposted ring road, still the A58.
Follow this road through two sets of traffic lights, approximately 3 miles, then at the top get into the right hand lane for a right hand turn, As you turn, stay in the right hand lane (the left is a filter left) you'll be heading onto the A673.
Approximately 2 miles on, you will see a sign for Overdale Crematorium.
opening times -: Monday to Friday 8.30am-5.45pm weekends and bank holidays 10am-2pm
