Originally established in 1916 by the Bailey family, Bailey and Tranter is an independent family business. Although the business started its life as A. Bailey Funeral Directors, the family were primarily known for their work in the building trade (or construction). When Dennis Bailey decided to sell the Ironbridge based company upon his retirement in the early 1980’s, the business found a new home with the Tranter family, when it was purchased by Mr John Tranter.
Though Mr Bailey has since sadly passed away, his presence is still felt both in the business and the community. The high esteem in which the company is still held is a testament to the hard work and commitment shown by its founding family. The same ethos is employed by its current proprietors to ensure that the community it serves experiences unparalleled compassion and dedication during their bereavement.
