Hearses

The following show with photographs the range of hearse which we have available.  These are the vehicles which are used to transport the coffin and flowers, and usually the funeral director and bearers.  If another specific vehicle is required our representative should be able to make enquiries as to whether or not we can hire in any such vehicle.

 
Rolls-Royce Mirage finished in Silver

The Rolls-Royce Mirage is the only hearse of it's type available in the United Kingdom.  Based on a Rolls-Royce, but converted in the UK to our own specification this vehicle perfectly compliments the Rolls-Royce Phantom Saloon cars we have available.  All of our Phantom fleet have matching three digit numberplates.

Rolls-Royce Silver Mist finished in Silver

We have a fleet of six matching hearses built to our own new design and shown here.  Each has a solid fitted and furnished deck to accommodate any of our coffins or caskets, along with roughly 20 floral tributes inside the hearse.  They each have roof rails fitted, so if required floral tributes can be transported on the roof of the hearse on short journeys

Bentley Birkin finishd in Silver

This hearse is built on a Bentley Brooklands and matches the three Bentley Birkin limousines which it is stabled with at Mansfield Woodhouse.  The hearse has a soft closing rear door, will accommodate any coffin up to and including an American Casket with many floral tributes around it and on the roof, and is lit inside for evening receptions, and funeral services when the nights are drawing in.

Rolls-Royce Phantom VI finished in Black

Our Rolls-Royce Phantom VI hearse finished in black.  We only have one of these vehicles, but is is available for our clients who would prefer to see a traditional black hearse.

The vehicle is a 1969 Rolls-Royce Phantom VI, and originally had a Mulliner Park-Ward Limousine body.  It was converted into a hearse in the early 1980’s and has been used in the funeral trade throughout the country.  It is a majestic vehicle, and very similar to the fleet of vehicles used on the funeral of the late Lady Diana, Princess of Wales.

This vehicle was coachbuilt using the traditional techniques and materials, and is a fairly recent addition to our fleet.  It does have a matching limousine, 1 YKP, and this vehicle can be found on the limousine section of this area of the website.

Rolls-Royce Silver Spirit hearse for flowers

This hearse is smaller than both the Rolls-Royce Silver Mist and Bentley Birkin, and can carry floral tributes both inside and on the roof when the weather permits.

Mercedes V-class closed hearse
We have a fleet of six Mercedes V-Class vehicles that have been converted into closed hearses.  Each has a fully fixed and furnished wooden deck to the rear, but darkend glass to this section thus not allowing anyone to see in.  These vehicles are used for our first call vehicles, but can be used as a more discreet hearse when specified.
Victorian hand bier

This original Victorian hand bier can be used on village funerals, or those that cover only a short distance.  Included within the price is the delivery of the hand bier to the funeral destination, and the use of a closed hearse to deliver the coffin.
