Hillier Funeral Service Unveils Historic Lime Kiln House: A New Funeral Home in Royal Wootton Bassett
Hillier Funeral Service, a name synonymous with compassionate, family-run care in Wiltshire, is proud to announce the grand opening of its newest funeral home at Lime Kiln House in Royal Wootton Bassett.
To celebrate the occasion, the Hillier family and team are investing the local community to join us as we open the doors to Lime Kiln House, our carefully and lovingly restored Grade II Listed Building.
The opening of Lime Kiln House represents more than just a new funeral home location for Hillier Funeral Service; it’s the culmination of a passionate journey to revive a piece of Royal Wootton Bassett’s heritage. The Hillier family has lovingly undertaken the careful restoration of Lime Kiln House, transforming it into a serene and dignified space designed to support families during their most difficult times.
“We have poured our heart and soul into restoring Lime Kiln House,” say Mark and Rebecca Hillier, the father and daughter team. “Our vision was to create a funeral home that not only offers modern, compassionate care but also respects and preserves the unique history of this beautiful building. We believe Royal Wootton Bassett deserves a facility that reflects the warmth and heritage of its community, and we are honoured to be a part of it.”
