Pughs Funeral Directors (trading as W R Pugh & Son) has served Shrewsbury since 1890 and is now run by the fourth generation of the same family, with premises on Longden Coleham dating back to the early 1800s. The firm operates from two addresses in the town, 133 Longden Coleham and 87 Whitchurch Road, both tastefully decorated to retain their original character.
The independent firm is a member of the National Association of Funeral Directors, a signatory to the Armed Forces Covenant, and offers traditional funerals, direct cremation, embalming, stonemasonry and the handling of cremated remains, alongside personalised touches such as flowers, orders of service and memorial jewellery. The team also provides legal support and probate guidance to families, with a 24-hour service available throughout the year.
Pughs describes its role as helping families to honour, respect and celebrate a life, offering a personal, unhurried approach at every stage of the arrangements.
