Serving Australian Families Since 1876

Over a century ago, John Tillett migrated from Cornwall to become a leading stonemason in the colony of South Australia, creating some of the magnificent monuments for our early settlers.

In the mid 1900's, John's grandson Stephen Tillett incorporated the company S.D. Tillett Memorials Pty Ltd and guided the company in it's growth. He established a factory at Hindmarsh, along with quarrying South Australian granite and Mintaro Slate for processing and export.

Stephens son Christopher Tillett continued the traditions of fine craftsmanship, backed by personalised service form the very same premises on West Terrace, Adelaide, where his great grandfather John Tillett followed his craft.

In addition to monuments, Tillett Memorials have been entrusted by leading architects and authorites to help create a significant number of South Australian landmarks.
