AW Lymn go above and beyond to make the hardest day of your life as simple and hassle free as possible. I would highly recommend them to anyone going through these difficult times. 

Mark Pashley 13th May 2025

Emma and Gary gave great support and I would thoroughly recommend AW Lymn at Radcliffe on Trent. 

Laura Marr 3rd May 2025

From the moment we spoke to Emma at the Radcliffe branch we were looked after. She was absolutely brilliant, very helpful and more importantly empathetic after losing our beloved mum. Couldn't have asked for a better experience in very sad circumstances. The funeral itself went very smoothly with Edward who again was fantastic.

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.

    I cannot thank Lymns enough for being so compassionate, understanding and professional in helping me to arrange the funeral for my mum. Emma at the Radcliffe Office was just so lovely to deal with and nothing was too much trouble. On the day of the funeral the funeral director, Tony, was understanding and respectful as were the pallbearers and drivers. I know it takes a whole team to make everything come together and I absolutely appreciated the hard work and thoughtfulness of everyone involved. Thank you
