W J Hoyland and Co Funeral Directors

W J Hoyland and Co Funeral Directors Independent, family owned establishment since 1912. With four generations of caring for your loved ones for over 113 years. J. Hoyland & Co."

Our premises were built in 1876 by John Keeton and we still have detailed records and complete accounts dating back to that era. The house was named "Cyprus Cottage", which can still be seen engraved in stone on the front of the property. John Keeton passed away in April 1915. However, the business had already been passed on and established as "W. Hoyland” by William James Hoyland on June 10th, 1912, which is clearly marked in the records from that year. The business traded as "Undertaker, Joiner and Property Repairer", serving Intake Village and the surrounding areas. The coffins were all hand made on site. The original workshop on the premises still exists today as part of our history. William James Hoyland passed away in January 1959. His eldest son Hugh then continued to develop the establishment further. Hugh's nephew, Ralph showed a keen interest from a young age, and with Hugh's guidance, Ralph learnt all aspects of the business. When Hugh Hoyland sadly passed away in April 1985, Ralph continued to build upon his uncle's hard work, carrying the business forward with his extensive knowledge, professionalism and dedicated love of his job until his untimely passing in May 2009. Now in our 110th year, and in our fourth generation, "W. Funeral Directors is still a family run establishment, managed by Ralph's daughter, Rebecca and her supportive team, which includes brother-in-law, Warrick and sister Riana. We take great pride to uphold the good name and reputation created by our predecessors. We serve all parts of Sheffield and the surrounding areas. Providing you with a personal and caring service, with traditional values, during your difficult time of need. We will guide you through every step of the way. Assuring you of our best attention at all times.
