About Us
Built in 1974 on the site of the Old Runge Hall in Culling Road, the F.A. Albin & Sons head office was built to serve the community and has every facility to assist families at the time of bereavement.
The premises are located in close proximity to the public transport system and have allocated spaces for customer parking. Facilities include eight chapels of rest, a large garage to accommodate our modern fleet, a comprehensive mortuary, a museum as well as administration offices.
Also located at Culling Road is F.A. Albin & Sons' memorial garden, which consists of a large number of niches for families to inter the ashes of their loved ones, boulder plaques, wall and vase plaques where flowers can be placed. All remembrance opportunities are open to everyone so you will not be required to retain ashes in order to dedicate a memorial.
Funeral directors Jonathan and Simon Dyer are responsible for the branch and are available Monday to Friday from 9 am to 5 pm, on Saturdays from 9 am to 2 pm and on Sundays from 10 am to 12 pm. The company operates a 24 hour on call response outside normal working hours.
Our office serves all of the M25 area.
The Albin family first worked as wardens of the Bermondsey cemetery over 200 years ago, to then start serving the community as funeral directors.
What Families Say
AI SummaryMany families describe the care shown to their loved one throughout the process, from the moment they are collected through to the funeral day itself. This attention to the deceased is paired with consistent praise for how staff make families feel supported, explaining arrangements clearly and answering questions without pressure, which families say eases an otherwise overwhelming time.
Families repeatedly mention the professionalism evident on the day of the funeral, noting the dignity and respect shown by the teams conducting the service, the coordination of the cortege, and thoughtful personal touches—such as stopping at meaningful locations or small gestures of comfort—that made the occasion feel both seamless and deeply personal.
Communication and accessibility recur throughout: families value having a dedicated point of contact available to answer questions, the calm guidance offered during difficult decisions, and the willingness of staff to go beyond what was asked, whether in planning or during the service itself.
