As a family run independent funeral director, our team are on hand to offer advice and support whenever it is needed, twenty-four hours a day, at your time of need.

Our Heritage

Established in 1840, the Company today is still owned by the Richards family, direct descendants from the original David Davies. 

Nick and Gillian Richards strive to lead our team in a positive modern direction whilst at all times never forgetting nor dismissing the past and what has gone before.

Testimonial – The Harper Family

“To Nick, Gillian & all the whole team. A most sincere and heartfelt thanks for the support and kindness you showed us during a very difficult time.

Through your exceptional professionalism you took away the “mundane” bits and replaced them with an empathy of how were the more important elements to be brought to the forefront.

I think Mum would have wholeheartedly approved of her ”send off” and how we managed to express the pride and love we had been given by her in our lives. Again many thanks.”

Testimonial – The Jones Family

“Thank you so very much for the excellent service you provided in preparation for and at my Mother’s Funeral. You handled everything so sensitively at an extremely difficult time for us all. 

I especially want to thank the bearers and the gentleman in charge. They were all so professional, patient and flexible to our needs as well as being very friendly and accommodating .

The gentleman in charge was especially considerate, sensitive and professional and ensured everything ran as smoothly as possible – you helped make a sad, slightly unusual occasion as pleasant and personal as possible.

That, and the wonderful setting, made it a good send off for Mum. Our grateful thanks to you all.”
