After much anticipation we are incredibly excited and feeling very privileged to add Abney Park Chapel, Stoke Newington to the Thereafter portfolio of unique spaces to hold a very personal funeral. Having undergone extensive renovations the doors to the Chapel are now open and it is available for the community once more.
Located between Stoke Newington Church Street and Stoke Newington High Street, Abney Park covers 12.5 hectares in the heart of Hackney. There are multiple reasons why Abney Park has earned its place as one of London’s ‘magnificent seven garden cemeteries’. The grounds are a designated nature reserve rich in extraordinary history with stories that continue to be discovered. The Grade II listed building is the oldest surviving non-denominational chapel in Europe. The entire environment is one very special place. Original features remain whilst fresh timber panelling and new stained glass windows representing the four seasons create a warm, clean, peaceful venue.
With a trusted history in bespoke and unique events Thereafter are thrilled to be the designated funeral director to facilitate farewells in this historic environment. Please do not hesitate to be in contact to discuss holding a ceremony or celebration here with us.
