A totally seamless service at a very difficult time. Nothing was a problem, at hand 24/7. Thank you.

Geoffrey Tindall 29th Sep 2019

From initial contact with Dominic to the service at the Sherwood Forest Crematorium all arrangements went smoothly to plan and the few people at the service thought it was appropriate and no one had any adverse comments. My personal point of view matches that of the other people and I am grateful for the help and advice offered by Dominic, together with his prompt arrangements  and consideration. G. Tindall.

Everything was very well organised and the staff (Dominic) were professional and sensitive. We felt the funeral went very well. Thank you. Val Moreland (daughter)

About Us

A.W. Lymn’s Bingham funeral home has a proud and long-standing history of serving the local community. Originally opened in 1964 as Bingham and District Funeral Service, the branch operated under the Beeson family alongside their Carlton, Radcliffe-on-Trent and Ruddington locations. All became part of the A.W. Lymn family in 1994, continuing a tradition of professional and compassionate care that dates back to 1907.

The building itself was formerly owned by the Squires family and functioned as the town’s local stonemasons, adding historical significance to the premises. In 2024, the Bingham funeral home underwent extensive refurbishment, introducing new, state-of-the-art facilities designed to offer families a modern, comfortable, and peaceful environment during times of need.

Dominic Lister, who has worked at A.W. Lymn since 2009, is the Funeral Director responsible for the Bingham office. A second-generation funeral director, Dominic lives locally and brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the role. He is a qualified Civil Celebrant and also serves as a tutor for the National Association of Funeral Directors, reflecting his commitment to the highest professional standards and continued education in the funeral profession.

Conveniently located for families in Bingham and the surrounding villages, the branch serves communities including Barnstone, Colston Bassett, Cotgrave, Cropwell Bishop, Cropwell Butler, Granby, Harby, Hickling, Kinoulton, Langar, Long Clawson, Owthorpe, Plungar, Radcliffe-on-Trent, Tythby, Upper Saxondale, East Bridgford, Gunthorpe, Lowdham, Car Colston, and Flintham.

As part of A.W. Lymn The Family Funeral Service, a fifth-generation family business, the Bingham team is committed to delivering exceptional funeral services tailored to each family’s needs, upholding the highest standards of dignity, respect and care.

  • 5 David Mason 24th Sep 2019

    This is the second time in four years that we have used A W Lymn in Bingham to organise a funeral. On both occasions, there were complex issues of timing that needed to be addressed to allow key relatives and friends to attend.

    The staff at the Bingham office, supported by colleagues from elsewhere, were models of efficiency and professionalism.  Perhaps more importantly, they were sensitive and caring in their dealings with bereaved relatives across a range of age groups.  We could not have asked for a better experience.

    Chloe Lymn Rose replied
    Thank you for your very kind words. We are glad that Dominic and his team were sensitive and caring in all their dealings with you and your family and that they were able to fit the arrangements to your specific requirements to allow everyone the opportunity to attend. Thank you.

  • 5 Karen Butler 14th Dec 2018


    I cannot praise Dominic Lister of A.W.Lymn, Bingham enough. Having dealt with my brother's funeral in 2014, at my specific request he managed everything related to my mother's funeral on November 29th this year. His dealings with me were thorough, reassuring and above all, sensitive. He accommodated my need to move the service time forward a little and he ensured that everything that needed to be done was done without fuss or any sense of stress or tension. He was respectful throughout and a source of strength to me as we entered the church and gathered at the graveside. He had an excellent relationship with his colleagues who went about their work with consummate professionalism.

    I was impressed by the way in which the cards, written by members of the congregation, were collected together and presented in a beautiful little folder and I noted that the CDs used for the service were collected before leaving the church.

    I would be doing Dominic and Lymns a great injustice to rate the service provided anything less than a five star 'Excellent'.

    My grateful thanks

    Chloe Lymn Rose replied
    Thank you for taking the time to leave such a wonderful and detailed review.  I It was an honour to be asked to personally oversee Mrs. Butler’s arrangements and I would like to thank you for your kind words.  I will also pass the review onto the other staff involved on the day. Thank you, Dominic.
