About Trotman Funeral Directors

Trotman Funeral Directors began in the winter of 1933 under William John (Jack) Trotman and has stayed in Cranmore for four generations, with his grandson John Reakes still involved. Now an independently owned firm working under the Forsey and Son name, it offers an unattended direct cremation, an attended simple cremation, two Pavilion packages using an on-site room, and a fully bespoke funeral. A single viewing in the chapel of rest can be added to the lower priced packages for a charge. Arrangements can be discussed at the premises or at home, and lines are open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Hybrid vehicles, willow coffins and green burial sites reflect its environmental approach. It works with local ministers and celebrants, publishes a Standardised Price List, and belongs to NAFD and SAIF. Rated 5 from 19 Google reviews.
