About
Hooley, Watson & Buckley is a long-standing firm of funeral directors at 7–9 James Street in Macclesfield town centre, caring for families across Macclesfield and the surrounding towns and villages. The firm arranges burials, cremations and memorial services for people of all faiths and none.
The business has been serving the Macclesfield community since 1888, and that long heritage means generations of local families have turned to it at difficult times. It now operates as part of the Dignity network of funeral directors while continuing to offer the same local, personal service from its James Street premises.
Families are supported through every stage, from the first call through to the day of the funeral and beyond, with experienced staff handling the practical arrangements with care and discretion. Round-the-clock support means the firm can respond whenever it is needed.
Typical clients are bereaved families in and around Macclesfield needing help to arrange a funeral, as well as people planning ahead through pre-paid funeral plans. The firm also assists with memorials, repatriation and other related services.
