Distington Hall Crematorium will close for two weeks for a revamp.
Work is due start on Friday, March 29, by Roland Hill Ltd on behalf of Cumberland Council.
There will be a complete refurbishment of the foyer, chapel, cloisters and toilets, plus a new family room and an update of the music system.
The first stage of improvement works at Distington Hall Crematorium will get underway from Friday 29 March and are expected to take around two weeks to complete.
The site will also be unable to accommodate the strewing of ashes in the crematorium grounds.
All services will remain operational in the site’s cemeteries and the chapel of remembrance will also remain open.
Carlisle Crematorium, also managed by Cumberland Council, is fully open and can be used as an alternative during the temporary closure of the Distington site.
