Memorial planning in Canterbury should start with climate (Cool Temperate) and housing (spread) in England, then pick materials — not the other way around.
Memorial planning for Canterbury should spec materials against cool temperate and spread display space first — then lock custom fabrication window only after ashes are actually ready.
