Footstones
A footstone is a monument typically made of granite that is placed at the foot of the grave. Once used almost exclusively in combination with a headstone, footstones are an inexpensive way to mark a grave temporarily until the headstone can be placed.
Footstones are also commonly used with a headstone as a place to show nicknames and family relationships.
Footstones come in many sizes, shapes, designs and colors. Pricing depends on the size, shape, design, finish and color of the memorial.
Since footstones are small stones, you should be aware that they are often covered by grass and soil and are difficult to maintain.
