John Brown Funeral Services

John Brown Funeral Services are one of the few, fully independent, family-owned funeral directors in Norwich, with over 40 years experience. Now run by David Bridge (Dip F.D), we are proud to serve the local community and do everything we can to help. John Brown was a funeral director in Norwich for many years before starting on his own in 1970, with original premises on Constitution Hill in Sprowston. Then in 1972 he acquired the site of the Old Catton Methodist Church on North Walsham Road, Sprowston, where we are still located today, some 40 years later. The Methodist chapel had to be sadly brought to ground and the new funeral home was born. John worked hard with his family and built the business until he was pleased to have David Bridge join him in 1996. David had been in the funeral profession since the age of 16 and with now 40 years experience. We are proud of our heritage and with our own modern Volvo fleet of cars. Refurbished chapel of rest and office on our own extensive and tranquil grounds and gardens.
