A little about Rose Cottage... |
|
The company's long
association with Rose Cottage threads right through last century. It was
the home of Clive Cooper from his birth until marriage in 1964.
He moved back to Rose Cottage from 1977 to 1990. It was his
father's residence from 1932 to 1977.
|
|
Only
20
years ago the stables existed at the rear of Rose Cottage for the funeral
horses. During the day the horses were kept in the meadow opposite (now
known as Meadow Place) on which the Harcourt Close housing development has been
built.
|
|
Rose Cottage,
believed to be 350 year old, has links with the funeral business which can be
traced back to the 19th century. From 1856, the wheelwright who lived in
the Cottage was also the undertaker.
|
|
Clive Cooper said: "We are proud of our reputation as a
traditional family firm, so this move back to where it all started has very
special significance for the family".
The photos
above show the reception, arranging room a special
feature of the premises are the National Competition winning stained glass windows
in the Chapel of rest and throughout the property. A leaflet on the
history of Rose Cottage is available from Cooper & Son in Uckfield please feel
free to drop in and pick one up.

A little about our Funeral Directors... |
|
Grace has
been training with us since leaving school and recently she sat, and passed, the National
Examination for her Diploma in Funeral Directing.
We believe that
Grace is the only professionally qualified funeral director in Lewes. In keeping with our
determination to ensure the highest standards in all that we do.
Recently our Office and
Chapel of Rest has been the subject of a makeover with a brighter exterior yet
remaining in keeping with our special and prominent position within the Town Centre adjacent
to the War Memorial.
Sean Lyndon, has been training
with us in Uckfield and has in the last year also achieved his Diploma in
Funeral Directing. We believe that this makes Sean Uckfield's only
professionally qualified Funeral Director.
Based in the recently rennovated
Rose Cottage, and with the occasional advice of Mr Clive Cooper, Sean has the
best possible environment in which to care for the bereaved of Uckfield.
