A.W. Lymn - The Family Funeral Service was established in 1907 and remains family-owned, operated by the Lymn Rose family, and has grown into a network of 26 offices across Nottinghamshire and South Derbyshire. This branch, Derwent House at 9 Becket Street, Derby (DE1 1HT), was renovated in 2012 and serves Derby city centre together with surrounding areas including Allestree, Markeaton, Alvaston, Pride Park, Chaddesden, Darley Abbey, Breadsall, Littleover, Mackworth, Sinfin, Osmaston and Spondon.
The branch is led by Kevin Hall, a Senior Funeral Director with 18 years' service, alongside funeral director Neil Reeves, funeral arranger Kaitlan Thompson, and drivers/bearers Frank Don and Stuart Stemp. Opening hours are Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm, and Saturday, 9am to 12:30pm. The office maintains a fleet of Rolls-Royce Phantom funeral vehicles and offers personalisation options such as engraved nameplate coffins, alongside the group's standard range of traditional funerals, bespoke obituaries and pre-payment planning. One client review on the site praises the personal attention received: "Kevin came to my house to discuss all our needs and because I don't use a computer I could phone him anytime."
Group-wide, A.W. Lymn draws on affiliated businesses including City Flowers Nottingham and The Craftsmen in Stone for masonry, and offers 24-hour, seven-day availability across its Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire network.
