Today we remember.

On this Remembrance Sunday, we pause to honour the bravery, sacrifice and selflessness of all those who served and continue to serve our country.

As the nation falls silent, we reflect on the countless lives touched by conflict — the loved ones lost, the families who waited, and the generations forever changed.

We remember them not only in our silence, but in our gratitude, our peace, and our promise to never forget.

“At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them.”

✨ A Timeless Tradition ✨

For centuries, horse-drawn carriages have been a dignified way to accompany loved ones on their final journey. In the UK, this tradition became especially popular in the Victorian era, when black horses with feathered plumes were often seen leading the cortege. White horses, as shown here, were sometimes chosen to symbolise peace and purity.

Today, families still take comfort in this beautiful tribute — a graceful way to honour a life with tradition and elegance.

Our team can arrange a horse-drawn carriage as part of a funeral service, should this be a fitting choice for your loved one. Please don’t hesitate to contact us if you’d like to know more. Tel 01633 861188

Client Feedback Spotlight.

We’re always honoured to help families create lasting tributes for their loved ones. We recently received this lovely message from a customer after we completed their memorial:

"After your telephone call today we went up the cemetery to have a look at the headstone and surround, and place some flowers, and what can I say…. It looks amazing! We are so pleased with the whole thing and all the amazing work Ross put into the headstone is fantastic. Thank you all so so much."

It means so much to hear words like these, and we’re proud of the care and craftsmanship that goes into every memorial.

✨ Thank you to our wonderful client for allowing us to share their feedback and photo.
