Our aim is to provide a funeral service designed to give maximum help, guidance, and comfort throughout the difficult time of bereavement.
Established in Manchester in 1873, we are an old Manchester Family Firm of Funeral Directors which extends over five generations of the family, originally based in Moss Side, Manchester and Old Trafford in the Stretford Borough. However, with the progress of time we now operate through two branches. Our Head Office is situated in Manchester Road, Chorlton – cum – Hardy in South Manchester, and we also have an office on Barton Road, Stretford.
With over 140 years service to the community we are proud to maintain the traditions expected of a family owned and family run firm. We are entirely independent of any large organisation or foreign owned group and, as such, great emphasis is placed on providing personal care with integrity and thoughtfulness throughout the difficult time of bereavement.
Due to our reputation, and having been established for so many years, we often also serve families in the Trafford districts, including Urmston, Flixton, Davyhulme, Partington, Stretford, Sale and Altrincham, also all Salford areas, Eccles, Prestwich,Whitefield and Bury, North and South Manchester including Wythenshawe.
In fact we are able and willing to serve all of Greater Manchester and surrounding areas. Distance is no object, and we have often helped families arrange funerals all over the UK, including Wales, Scotland, Ireland and even Internationally.
Through the years we have found that bereavement brings unique and very special problems: It is our earnest desire, allied with a sense of vocation, to render as much help as we possibly can with the practical aspects of the arrangements and to ensure that the funeral is conducted with all due reverence and dignity.
