Murrell Cork Funeral Directors, has been serving the community over five generations of the same family. Established in 1850 by Murrell Cork, whose work consisted of carpentry, undertaking and wheelwrighting. He was succeeded by one of his sons, also named Murrell who included building as an important part of the company's work.
Although the art of wheelwrighting has practically gone, all the other aspects already mentioned continued to flourish under the guidance of Murrell's son William. When William retired his eldest son Mike took over the helm, the company then took on Mr Ray Cootes to manage the company for a few years and when he decided to start his own building business another of William's sons took over as Managing Director.

These organisations provide up to date information concerning new government regulations, Office of Fair Trading updates and general information to keep funeral directors informed of current issues. Training for those within funeral directing and arbitration for clients and funeral directors should this be required.
It could be a themed burial, perhaps along the lines of the ideas below - although this list is certainly not exhaustive. We are able to advise you on any special requests. Again, instead of opting for the traditional funeral, you may prefer to have an environmental or ecologically friendly funeral, with perhaps a burial in a conservation or woodland area.
Murrell Cork Memorials is part of the Murrell Cork family of businesses and has been developed to help clients choose memorials with people they have become familiar with when they arranged the funeral service. We will always be pleased to help and discuss all aspects of suitable memorials for churchyards and cemeteries.
The death of a loved one is an experience we may all have to cope with at some time in our lives. Our reaction to this will vary from person to person. Initial shock at the loss is often described as numbness, a sense of disbelief; sometimes the fact of death and the meaning of loss may be denied by those bereaved.
It is necessary for a death to be registered by the next-of-kin or executor, normally before a burial or cremation can take place. The registration must take place in the Registrars Office for the area in which the death occured. You will need a Medical Certificate of the Cause of Death (issued by the doctor or hospital).

After a sudden bereavement of my husband, I was so glad I was recommended to see Sheila. She made the whole experience of arranging my husband’s funeral bareable. She understood my needs and concerns and that of my sons and was very caring. I would not hesitate to recommend this funeral directors.
