About Us
A warm, friendly family-run business, Barringtons Independent Funeral Services covers the areas of Waterloo, Merseyside, Wirral and North Liverpool. All aspects of the funeral arrangements are taken care of from the moment they are contacted. They will try to ensure the same funeral director consults directly with the family about arrangements for the day throughout the planning process.
The Barringtons funeral home offers well-maintained, attractive modern chapels with neutral furnishings and well finished decorations. With two floors and plenty of room for families and visitors, you can drop by to discuss funeral arrangements, for help and advice, or even just for a chat.
Barringtons specialise in a range of funerals, from traditional burials and cremations, to more non-traditional ceremonies, such as eco or ‘green’ funerals. They will try to cater to any alternative aspects or personalisations you want to incorporate to create a fitting tribute to your loved one. These include dove releases, horse-drawn funerals, flower tributes and fly-past tributes.
Other products and services are also available, such as caskets, memorial jewellery, urns, condolence books and photo frames. Barringtons are also able to help with organising obituary placements, donations from guests and taking names at the funeral.

It’s been a long time since I wanted to write about my father, Salvatore Spoto (deceased 14/05/21) followed by my mum, Marian Spoto (deceased 10/08/23). Death is dreadful I hate it every day. The pain never goes. Then you have Barringtons to help you & support you through the dreadful times. From my first contact for one parent and then the other one, I can’t describe the love, kindness & understanding I got. Thank you always xxx

Barringtons guided me and my family through this very difficult time and were thoroughly professional, compassionate and helpful at all times. Special thanks to Julie who co-ordinated everything for us and was always able to provide useful information and advice when we needed it. Many Thanks.
