Four Generations of Compassionate Care, Dignity, and Respect
As an independent, family-run business established in 1923, Hillier Funeral Service is built on a foundation of community commitment. We believe that providing the highest quality funeral care begins with having a tranquil, welcoming space right in the heart of the areas we serve.
For over a century, the Hillier family has cared for the people of Swindon and Wiltshire. Our dedication to local heritage is demonstrated by our passion for bringing new life to old, historic buildings, ensuring our funeral homes offer a peaceful and dignified environment for every family.
We are proud to serve you from our four funeral homes: Kingshill House (Old Town, Swindon), Highworth, Rodbourne Cheney and our newest funeral home at Lime Kiln House (Royal Wootton Bassett).
Kingshill House: Our Head Office and Dedicated Funeral Home in Swindon
Kingshill House is the home of Hillier Funeral Service and serves as our Head Office, providing comprehensive facilities and support for families across Swindon and the surrounding villages. Originally a private house, and later an ex-maternity hospital, we carefully renovated this magnificent Grade II-listed building in 2022 to create a serene and dignified setting.
Kingshill House now features private arrangement rooms, comfortable counselling rooms, three beautiful Chapels of Rest and ample onsite parking. Kingshill House also has a unique service and wake room for families who’d prefer a more private funeral service away from the crematorium.
Located conveniently at the top of Kingshill Road, we ensure compassionate care is always within easy reach for those in Swindon, Wroughton, Chiseldon, Lydiard Millicent, and beyond. Discover our full range of services and see photos of facilities at on our dedicated Swindon Funeral Home page for immediate support.
Lime Kiln House: Our New Family-Run Funeral Directors in Royal Wootton Bassett
We are delighted to bring our experienced, local team to the community of Royal Wootton Bassett with the opening of our fourth funeral home at Lime Kiln House. This grand, historic building has been meticulously restored to ensure it provides the same
standard of comfort and dignity found at our three other funeral homes in the area. Lime Kiln House features private, accessible arrangement rooms, a peaceful Chapel of Rest and on-site parking.
Our presence here is an extension of our promise to better serve the needs of families in Royal Wootton Bassett and the surrounding areas of Purton, Lyneham, Broad Town, and North Wiltshire, putting our personal, independent service closer to you.

Our Local Home in Highworth: Serving the Eastern Villages
Our dedication to renovating old buildings extends to our funeral home in Highworth that started it’s life as a car showroom and petrol station. The building needed a new roof and a complete new internal steel structure. We updated the property to provide a warm, accessible, and comfortable funeral home with arrangement rooms and two Chapels of Rest. Our fleet of hearses and limousines are also garaged here.
The Highworth funeral home serves families in the eastern villages of Wiltshire, including Shrivenham, Fairford, and Lechlade, offering personalised care and a familiar local presence during difficult times.

Our Funeral Home at Rodbourne Cheney: Supporting North Swindon Families
While not a renovation project, our dedicated funeral in Rodbourne Cheney is a key part of our commitment to local funeral care. This home provides private arrangement rooms and a Chapel of Rest, to ensure that families in North Swindon and surrounding neighbourhoods have a convenient, comforting, and local contact point for all arrangements.
Our experienced team at Rodbourne Cheney provides the same compassionate, personal, and independent service that Hillier Funeral Service is known for across Wiltshire.
