Work has commenced on the "much-needed" Newtownabbey crematorium set to be completed by the end of the year.
The new Antrim and Newtownabbey Crematorium on Doagh Road in Newtownabbey will be the second crematorium site in Northern Ireland.
The project is due for completion in December 2022 and will utilise the most up-to-date equipment, ensuring environmental protection is maintained at the highest level.
