Recently, we conducted a funeral where the gentlemanโ€™s wish was to transported by a crane on his final journey. It was a privilege to assist in fulfilling such a meaningful request, and it serves as a reminder that there are many special and unique ways to honour a loved oneโ€™s final journey.

Each farewell can be shaped to reflect the individuality of the person, ensuring their memory is celebrated with dignity and respect.

Below are some pictures of other unique ways for a final journey that we have carried out, each one reflecting the personal wishes and stories of those we were privileged to serve.

Weโ€™ve created something special this yearโ€”a beautiful poppy waterfall flowing from our building, in honour of Remembrance Day.

This tribute is for everyone, if you feel you would like to contribute with a poppy, please come on into our Reception or leave a comment below, for us to attach one for you - for each poppy placed, we will be making a donation to the Royal British Legion.

Each poppy represents a life remembered, a sacrifice never forgotten. As they cascade gently down, they invite us all to pause, reflect, and give thanks to those who served.

Lest we forget.

Being part of the National Association of Funeral Directors is more than just a badgeโ€”itโ€™s a reflection of our unwavering commitment to the highest standards of care, professionalism, and integrity in the Funeral Service Profession.

Membership in a national governing body like the NAFD also demonstrates our dedication to transparency and accountability. It means we welcome inspection, uphold strict codes of practice, and operate with openness in everything we do.

Families can trust that our services meet nationally recognised standards. This recognition reinforces our promise to support families with compassion and respect.

Thank you to our team for their hard work and to our local community for trusting us during lifeโ€™s most difficult moments.

Thank you all for your continued support, throughout these years.

Our History

Founder of the business, Frank Painter began serving the local community as a Funeral Director in the 1930โ€™s, followed in later years by his son Alan and more recently by Frankโ€™s grandsons Chris and Mike and great grandsons Alan & Ben.

It has always been of paramount importance to the firm to give every help, advise and assistance to bereaved families. Thus hopefully in some small way easing the trauma, uncertainty and distress caused by bereavement.

The greatest care, respect and dignity is at all time afforded to your loved one. Families who wish to, may visit their loved ones in private, purpose built, dedicated Chapels of Rest. The funeral service offered by ourselves is individually tailored to the requirements of the family concerned and is at all times under the direction and personal supervision of Mr Chris Painter and Mr Mike Painter, whose dedication and commitment is a mirror image of their father and grandfather before them.
