Horse Drawn Funerals

Our equipment is of the highest standard ensuring we provide a service, which is consistently high and reliable. Our 'turnouts' are on call and can be ready within 12 hours.

Horses
Our Belgium Blacks (Friesian) horses are the traditional horses used for funerals for many years. We also offer stunning white Lippizzaner horses. Both these breeds are noted for their majestic presence, yet are perfectly sound in the heaviest of traffic and all situations. Both the black and the white horses are available in either a pair or team of four.

Harness and Hearses
Our fleet of hearses are truly impressive and unique, accommodating all sizes of coffins and caskets, we have both black and white hearses for you to choose. The harness is all made to our exact requirements and no detail has been missed, it is English made black leather with chrome shields and fittings, which match and compliment the hearse. The horses wear either black or white feather plumes and drapes, which are optional and down to personnel choice.

Drivers
Our drivers wear traditional outfits, with coachmans jackets, top hat and apron. They are all experienced horsemen and are able to lead the funeral procession with confidence. In addition to driving horses commercially, our drivers compete nationally in horse driving competitions, so you can be assured they are able to drive the horse drawn hearse with extreme skill and experience.

If you require any more details or would like to arrange a visit please contact us.

"The horses can be dressed
with any colour of your
choice, as shown with the
white and pink."
