Jane Waller 1st Apr 2026

Could not fault A W Lymn. David was very professional whilst still being empathetic and kind. The celebrant Elle Scriven was excellent, providing a beautiful service that captured the essence of my Mum.

Debbie Astle 28th Mar 2026

From my initial contact with the team at A.W Lymn, they were excellent. The care, attention and detail they provided was above and beyond. Their knowledge and professionalism is second to none. Nothing is too much trouble, they are prompt with their response and really care about you and your loved one.  David, Wendy and the team at Mansfield were so attentive, listened to everything required and delivered - thank you, you are excellent. They suggested a celebrant, Katie, who fitted exactly our requirements and delivered the most beautiful tribute to our loved one’s life. I highly recommend A.W. Lymn, they are excellent.

About Us

The office is located at Standard House, on Chesterfield Road South, and is a two storey building directly across from the Catholic Church of Saint Philip Neri. Standard House was opened on 12th July 2005 by Dr. Nigel Chapman, H. M. Coroner for Nottingham and Nottinghamshire, to better serve Mansfield’s families.

The premises include a reception area, visitation rooms, family room, off-street parking, some garaging for our fleet cars and cold room facilities.

Funeral director David Clarke is in charge of the office, and Jonathan Baker is the senior funeral director responsible for the area. Wendy Walker, a qualified funeral director, is based here when not covering holidays or sickness for the Mansfield funeral homes. David is available at the funeral home from 9 am to 5 pm, Monday to Friday. Alternatively, you can arrange an appointment at your convenience if you are unable to visit the office during opening hours. The telephone line is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

The branch covers all of Mansfield and its surrounding area including Berry Hill, Blidworth, Church Warsop, Clipstone, Forest Town, Harlow Wood, Ladybrook, Mansfield Woodhouse, Pleasley, Rainworth, Ravenshead, Shirebrook, Warsop, Warsop Vale and beyond.

Established in 1907, A W Lymn The Family Funeral Service is owned and managed by the Lymn Rose family. Nowadays, Nigel, Jackie and Matthew Lymn Rose run the company.
