• W82129373 abstract "Modern cremation came early to Scotland, with the opening of Maryhill in 1895 by the Scottish Burial Reform and Cremation Society. However, Glaswegians were not easily persuaded to switch from burial and the second crematorium was not built for 34 years. The rapid success of Warriston, Edinburgh, opened in 1929 was not only a great achievement for Scottish cremationists but stimulated the building for four more crematoria by 1939. This pair of papers describes how the revival of the cremation concept inspired two local authorities to build Scotland's first municipal crematorium. A first attempt by Glasgow City Council ended in failure in 1931 after four years work. Lanarkshire County Council made better progress and secured some funding by 1939. The project, postponed by the War, was resumed in 1945 and Daldowie was finally opened in 1955. Glasgow City Council resumed crematorium plans in 1951 and opened The Linn in 1962. Special attention will be given to the architecture and landscape design of Daldowie and The Linn. The papers will analyse how these two crematoria represent critical features in the movement to cremation in modern Scotland.Peter C. Jupp is a minister of the United Reformed Church.
