W.S. Harrison Funeral Directors have served the local community of Newcastle Upon Tyne since the 1920s. We moved into our current funeral home at St. Mark's House on Shields Road in 1984, making it easier to visit us from the surrounding areas of Byker, Heaton and Walker. Our funeral home is equipped with three peaceful Chapels of Rest, where you can spend time with your loved one before the funeral. Our dedicated team is always here to help you, from the moment you need us and we can give any advice, guidance and support you require at this difficult time.
