About Us

The Wollaton branch originally belonged to the Ilkeston Co-op Funeral Service before being incorporated into the A W Lymn group in 2003. The funeral home was formerly based on Arleston Drive in Wollaton, but was moved in late July 2014 to a purposed designed site on Wollaton Road called Deer Park House.

The new premises has off-street car parking and a beautiful visitation room with its own private waiting area.

The office was formerly a police station and features a large, bright, modern client reception, as well as state-of-the-art rooms.

The office is run by Funeral Director Kirby Cranshaw with the help of Funeral Arranger Sky O’Neill.

The funeral home is open Monday to Friday from 9 am to 5 pm and on Saturdays from 9 am to 12.30 pm. You can also make an appointment to see someone after hours via the telephone number.

The branch covers all of Wollaton and its surroundings including Bilborough, Bramcote, Nuthall, Strelley, Trowell, Watnall and beyond.

A.W.Lymn The Family Funeral Service is managed and owned by the Lymn Rose family. Nigel, Jackie and Matthew Lymn Rose are the directors of the company.

  • 5 Malcolm Carter 12th Sep 2016

    Unfortunately the flowers from the coffin were brought out a little late and hence some people missed seeing them. The service from Lymn's was still excellent!

    Matthew Lymn Rose replied
    Malcolm. I can only apologise for the delay with the flowers, but thank you for your otherwise positive review of our service. I will investigate what caused the delay. Regards, Matthew Lymn Rose.

    The whole service was professional and very respectfully done. Feedback from family and friends was really good. Thank you so much in honour of my dear late husband. You made a difficult time much easier to arrange his funeral.

  • 5 Susan Rugins de Montoya 10th Jun 2016

    Jane provided our family with excellent support throughout our contact with her, nothing was too much trouble. We appreciated Jane being at the other end of the phone or making herself available in person whenever we needed to contact her. She made a very difficult time much more manageable.

    Tracey and all the others made a bad time easier. We couldn't have asked for a better send off. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts xxxxxx

  • 5 Jodie Ball 23rd Mar 2016

    Having never had to organise a funeral of a close family member i was completely new to this and wasnt sure exactly what to expect. I was advised to contact 3 local funeral parlours as the costs could vary massively.
    I rang Lymns first and spoke to Jane Keetly and she set the bar so very high even a reduced price with others could not sway me.
    Jane dealt with me and the family from start to finish and was absolutely magnificent. I have sang hers and Lymns praises ever since and in future will only look to use you.
    Jane is a credit to Lymns and should never be allowed to retire.
    Kind Regards Jodie Ball and the rest of the Ball Family

  • 5 Tom Fisher 21st Mar 2016

    My experience with you was absolutely first rate, despite it being an extremely difficult time for me it became a relief that you carried out in detail everything we agreed. I received a huge amount of compliments on the proceedings that you were a large part of. As I explained on my first contact with Tracey (who was great) I had organised a number of our families funerals with another firm, I was always a little disappointed with some aspect of the proceedings but not this time it went perfectly and Jane and her team on the day were also excellent.
    Thank you.
    Tom Fisher

  • 5 Michael Leatherland 7th Mar 2016

    Like all people I suppose I had some concerns of the unknown, but from the moment we left Deer Park these concerns disappeared and as a family we were highly delighted not only with the professional way the funeral was conducted but the whole day.

  • 5 Paul Robinson 26th Feb 2016

    At a very difficult and emotional time the whole process was handled with professionalism and dignity and, above all, a personal care that was much appreciated by the family.
