Although A W Lymn's head office moved to Robin Hood House on Robin Hood Street in 1977, many people in the area still refer to this office as "Lymn's on Bath Street".
The head office, built by fourth generation George Rose in the late 1970's, has several in-house funeral directors to help families with their funeral needs, and also houses most of the company's administration staff.
The funeral home is staffed by funeral directors Kevin Browne and Philip Wilson, funeral arranger Megans Rosier and Luke Mellor, and receptionist Lucinda Pallett.
The opening times are Monday to Friday from 8 am to 6 pm and Saturdays from 9 am to 12.30 pm. Staff are also available to meet with you after office hours. Please call the telephone number at any time to arrange a convenient appointment.
Besides the administration and reception area, the premises have a coffin showroom, family rooms, visiting rooms, cold room facilities, a full fleet of hearses and limousines, a vintage fleet, stone masonry services and a florist.
A.W. Lymn's head office serves all of Nottingham city centre and its surrounding areas including Bobbers Mill, Colwick, Hyson Green, Mapperley, Radford, Sherwood, Sneinton, St. Ann's, The Meadows and beyond.
A W Lymn is owned and managed by the Lymn Rose family. Nigel Lymn Rose, one of the company's directors, was president of the National Association of Funeral Directors (NAFD) during its centenary year in 2005.
Faultless service, staff were respectful, courteous and informative and explained everything. All went as planned on the day. I would definitely use Lymns again.

Abbey, It was a great privilege to help you & Billy make the arrangements and to say a fitting goodbye to your Mum. We were all pleased that we were able to get a Leicester City Football flag to drape over Mum's coffin due to her being a life-long supporter. Thank you, Kevin.

Thank you Lymns for the assistance given to us over this sad time of losing Joe. Kevin Browne was considerate and helpful all the way along and as a family we really appreciated what was done for us.

Our best regards, Marilyn, Ian and Claire
