A new high capacity modern crematorium and two 200-seater chapels have been approved for Roselawn Crematorium in Castlereagh.
Lisburn and Castlereagh City Council’s (LCCC) planning committee signed off on the new-build, which will replace the existing over capacity crematorium to allow for 4,500 cremations a year.
The application by Belfast City Council was estimated to cost £18 in 2021, though the cost is due to be reviewed due to current inflationary pressures with an expected completion date in 2024.
