Top class service from start to finish.

Pamela Garton 17th Mar 2026

From my very first phone call contact everything was dealt with efficiently and with compassion. At every step nothing was too much trouble for them. They dealt with my queries straight away. Emma was outstanding. She always had the time to talk and sometimes became a “counsellor”. Her understanding of what I was feeling was so comforting. The ladies who arranged the floral Roundel tribute were so kind too. The day of the funeral was carried out with great respect. Thank you to everyone who was involved. 

Jessica Howard 13th Mar 2026

They were just perfect for my mums service we couldn’t have asked for anything better. Emma particularly took care with us and sorting things out. Thank you to everyone

About Us

Fred Beeson established a funeral service in Radcliffe on Trent in 1937 and moved to a purpose built funeral home in 1961. The business was incorporated into the A W Lymn group in 1994 and still remains at the same location. The premises underwent a major refurbishment in 2020.

The funeral home is run by Funeral Director Gary Cooke and Funeral Arranger Emma Hutton, who will be able to assist you Monday to Friday, from 9 am to 5 pm and on Saturdays, from 9 am to 12.30 pm. If you need assistance outside of office hours then please call the telephone number at any time.

The funeral home covers Radcliffe and all its surrounding areas, including Barnstone, Bingham, Caythorpe, Colston Bassett, Cotgrave, Cropwell Bishop, Cropwell Butler, East Bridgford, Granby, Gunthorpe, Harby, Hickling, Kinoulton, Langar, Long Clawson, Lowdham, Owthorpe, Plungar, Shelford, Tythby, Upper Saxondale and further afield.

The Rose family has a connection with Radcliffe dating over 100 years. A W Lymn The Family Funeral Service is currently run by Nigel, Matthew and Jackie Lymn Rose.

    Hi Pamela, thank you so much for taking the time to leave this lovely review. Your kind words really do mean so much to myself and the team. It has been my honour to support you and the family at this sad and difficult time. It is very obvious that Tony was dearly loved and will be extremely missed by all that knew him. The floral tribute was the perfect fit and even though Tony’s chipmunk plane was unable to do the fly by due to the true British weather, it was present in the picture of him with it. Kindest regards Emma, Gary and the team.

    The whole process was excellent, from the moment when I contacted them upon the death of my wife to the arrangements for the funeral. All involved were sympathetic and helpful, guiding me through everything that I needed to do, so making things much easier than I expected. They kept in touch at all times so I knew what was happening and when.
    The funeral itself was emotional but it was carried out with professionalism and dignity.

They helped us throughout the whole process, they were very efficient and informative helping us through the different processes, also very kind with regular check-ins. They ensured the day of the funeral went smoothly without any additional pressure on us as the family.

    Jane and family, thank you for entrusting us to look after the Funeral arrangements following the tragic loss of Mark. I am sure he would have appreciated your choosing of the Ford Mustangs and why! To see the church offering standing room only is a real testament to Mark’s character and personality. It was evident he touched countless lives and we be dearly missed by so many. Thank you for your kind words – they will be relayed to all involved. Take care - Edward, Emma, and the team.
