Bentley Crematorium took first place in the Brentwood in Bloom competition in the category for 'Best Maintained Commercial Religious Ground 2014'.
The crematorium was announced the winner and presented with a plaque on Thursday 31 July by Mayor of Brentwood, Vicky Davies, at the Brentwood Brewery Company.
Michelle Hales, manager of Bentley Crematorium, said: "It was suggested by the competition organisers that we show off our beautiful grounds and Memorial Garden in the competition and we thought it would be a fantastic idea. We are over the moon with the success we’ve had here over the last two years and hope that it continues for many years to come."
