Excellent attention to every detail. Lovely staff. Floristry breathtaking as was choice of coffins. Only one thing was more choice of shrouds .

About Us

St. Albans House, situated in Arnold, was opened in 1996 by Alison Maddaford, the president of the National Association of Funeral Directors at the time, and extended during late 2012. It is now run by Russell Kemp who has a very good knowledge of Arnold’s people, ministers, churches and customs. Russell gained his Diploma qualification with the National Association of Funeral Directors and is assisted by our funeral arranger Jessica Raynor. Beryl Spencer and Jodie Ruth are the receptionists / administrators.

A.W. Lymn's Arnold branch features a parking area, reception, two private reception rooms, two visitation rooms and also a visitation suite with an adjoining room where the family can spend time in private. There are also cold room facilities and a small memorial showroom.

Russell, Jessica, Beryl and Jodie will be more than pleased to offer any assistance you require, whether this is ’at need’, or simply an enquiry for the future. The funeral home is open from 9 am to 5 pm Monday to Friday, and 9 am to 12:30 pm on Saturday. All A.W. Lymn funeral homes are also open at any time by appointment and the telephone line is available every day of the week, 24 hours a day.

This branch covers all of Arnold and the surrounding areas including Calverton, Daybrook, Epperstone, Killisick, Lambley, Lowdham, Oxton, Redhill, Woodthorpe and beyond.

A.W. Lymn The Family Funeral Service is managed by Nigel, Matthew and Jackie Lymn Rose, who are keeping the family tradition in providing the best service for bereaved families since 1907.

  • 5 Lucinda Cox 27th Jun 2016

    We feel that the funeral director A.W. Lymn Arnold was outstanding when dealing with the funeral of John Arthur Horsley. Ellie was so professional and explained everything clearly and in detail. Ellie answered all our questions and was always available to chat through any queries we had in person or on the telephone. She guided us through an extremely difficult time and was caring and patient. Ross was also extremely professional and thoughtful on the day of the funeral.The celebrant Keith Brown was second to none and he delivered the service with compassion, honesty and impeccable professionalism. We highly recommend this funeral company and can't thank them enough for an excellent and wonderful send off for our loved one.

    All the arrangements were carried out extremely well with courtesy, dignity and compassion.
