Bowley & Sons Funeral Directors is a traditional, family-run independent funeral service based at 48 Wellington Road, Ashton-under-Lyne, with a second branch at 85 Caroline Street, Stalybridge, Greater Manchester. The business is run by Antoinette and Danielle Bowley, and is a member of SAIF (Society of Allied Independent Funeral Directors), having been recognised in the Best Rated 2025 awards.
The firm offers three core service tiers: a Direct/Unattended Funeral from £1,595 (which includes chapel of rest access for a final goodbye), the Bowley Family Funeral at £2,850 as a mid-range traditional option, and the more comprehensive Town Funeral at £3,495. Alongside these packages, the team provides green/woodland funeral services, guidance on practical matters such as registering a death, and round-the-clock support for bereaved families, with payment accepted by cheque, cash or BACS transfer.
Bowley & Sons describes its approach as 'Your Way Is Our Way', emphasising flexibility so that families can either have the funeral fully managed on their behalf or receive as much or as little guidance as they need. Serving Ashton-under-Lyne, Stalybridge and the surrounding Tameside area, the firm positions itself as an accessible, community-focused alternative to larger corporate providers.
