About W J Beswetherick & Son Ltd

W J Beswetherick & Son has supported Cornish families since William John Beswetherick founded it in 1959, and it is now in its fourth generation. One of Truro's longest established independent funeral directors, it also serves Perranporth, Goonhavern and communities across central Cornwall, with a 24 hour line. Burial options include church, graveside, woodland, natural and green burials, with natural burials at Penwith Woodland Burials and other sites. Direct cremations and pre-paid funerals are both offered. Viewing in the chapel of rest is by appointment during working hours.
