The 5th of November is a date synonymous to many for Bonfire night, it's also a date in the history of Walkers, as it was the date our Penrith office, Tynefield House was purchased in 1985. It's hard to believe 40 years has passed since this move, when Tynefield House was lovingly restored into a funeral home for our family firm as well as a family home. This beautiful Georgian building is distinctive in Penrith, and as well as serving our family firm, has also served countless bereaved families in the area, providing a place of comfort and reassurance.
