Funeral directors in Cupar

Cupar is the historic county town of Fife and the registration centre for north-east Fife. Three funeral directors hold premises in or immediately around the town, with one further independent firm — Farquharson & McNaughton, in Newburgh — serving Cupar from a few miles to the west.

Cremations from Cupar most commonly go to Brewsterwells Crematorium at Stratheden, near Springfield (KY15 5RR), which serves north-east Fife. Some families choose Kirkcaldy Crematorium instead. The Brewsterwells fee is paid separately to the operator and is not included in the funeral director's headline figure unless their price list explicitly says so.

Deaths in Cupar are registered at Cupar Registration Office, County Buildings, St Catherine Street, Cupar, KY15 4TA. Booking is by phone — Fife Council's central booking line is 03451 55 00 77. The death must be registered within eight days. For a step-by-step walk-through of the first 48 hours, see what to do when someone dies.

For burials, the main local cemeteries are Cupar Cemetery on Carslogie Road, Ceres Cemetery, and the smaller parish burial grounds at Kemback and Pitlessie. Lair purchase is arranged through Fife Council Bereavement Services. Several families choose direct cremation instead, which removes the burial-plot decision entirely.
