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 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.

  • 5 Jean Cleary 26th Feb 2017

    From the first time we met with Julia at the offices of A. W. Lymn until the funeral was over the service we received was professional but caring and personal. There was no pressure to have anything we did not want but we were pointed in the direction of what was available and introduced to others who could also help to make the actual day run smoothly. At a time when most people are not thinking as clearly as usual it is wonderful to have a lot of the stress removed by someone just saying "Don't worry. We can do that". I would recommend Lymns to anyone needing their services.

    Chloe Lymn Rose replied
    Thank you for taking the time to leave this kind and detailed review of the service you received from Julia and the rest of her team. We are pleased she was able to make the decision making process informative but without pressure, and that nothing was too much trouble for her.
