We were delighted with the service provided to us from A W Lymn, from the first contact they were very helpful and supportive. The funeral went exactly as planned and any services provided were very professional.
Started by Andy Askew in the early 1990’s, this funeral home was incorporated into the A W Lymn group in September 2004.
Andy has remained as a funeral director at A W Lymn and has conducted many of the funerals in Shirebrook, becoming very well known in the community. Nowadays, Andy is based in our Mansfield Woodhouse branch, so Jackie Potter currently arranges most funerals at Shirebrook.
Jackie can assist you Monday to Friday from 9 am to 5 pm and also in after-office hours by appointment.
The branch features private parking, visiting rooms, a reception area, family rooms and cold room facilities.
The office covers all of Shirebrook and its surrounding areas including Berry Hill, Blidworth, Church Warsop, Clipstone, Forest Town, Harlow Wood, Ladybrook, Mansfield, Pleasley, Rainworth, Ravenshead, Warsop, Warsop Vale and beyond.
Matthew, Jackie and Nigel Lymn Rose currently manage A W Lymn The Family Funeral Service.

Thank you, Andrea, for taking the time to leave this lovely review. I’m glad I could make everything happen just as you wanted and I hope you are feeling better as each day passes by. I know you miss your dad so much and hope you find comfort in the jewellery you are having made, with part your dad’s ashes inside. Take care, Jackie.

We cannot thank A.W. Lymn Shirebrook enough for their care and help at this difficult time. Jackie Potter was wonderful, guiding us carefully and sympathetically through every stage.
The funeral cortege was prompt, the drivers courteous and no detail was overlooked.
Thank you so very much.
