If you are planning a cremation, your local funeral director can arrange a service at any crematorium in line with your wishes. As part of the same business group, we work closely with Lichfield & District Crematorium, located on Fradley Lane in Fradley, which may be a convenient option for local families.
We are a short walk from the George Hotel and the Kings Head public house.
These are estimated costs for a cremation. For a burial, please call us and we'll explain the costs.
