    About Banfield & Pomphrey Funeral Directors

    Fred Pomphrey established Banfield & Pomphrey Funeral Directors on the High Street in Hastings in 1946, before moving to our present premises in Ore around 1990. 

    The team at our Hastings funeral home will provide advice at every stage of the funeral planning process, and will arrange an individual and unique funeral to help you celebrate the life of your loved one. 

    Here at Banfield & Pomphrey Funeral Directors we also offer an affordable prepaid funeral plan, Choice, so that you can arrange and pay for a funeral in advance. 

    If you would like to talk to us about planning a funeral, or our Choice plan, please come and see us in any of our funeral homes, or if you’d rather we can arrange a home visit. We’re also available 24 hours a day on the phone so if you need anything please don’t hesitate to call your local funeral home.

    Banfield & Pomphrey were excellent in assisting my family to arrange my father’s funeral. From collection of his corpse, to discussing funeral options, and then the reliable organisation on the day, we received an excellent service.
