From the Wikipedia article
Carleton Crematorium, together with the adjacent necropolis, Carleton Cemetery, is a graveyard located within the Greenlands ward of Blackpool, with its main entrance on Stocks Road in Carleton, Lancashire, England. It was opened on 18 July 1935. The building was created by Blackpool Borough architect J. C. Robinson, who based his design on his own interpretation of the Mausoleum of Mausolus. At the north door is a chapel containing Books of Remembrance, which note the names of all those cremated or interred there. The site is located partly in Blackpool and partly in Carleton; the crematorium comes under the jurisdiction of Blackpool Council.
