About Us

Cunninghams Funeral Directors has been in business serving Meath, Kildare and the greater Dublin since the 1920's.

The present company has evolved from the original family business "Cunningham Brothers" set up by three brothers Robert, Andrew and John who were already trading as Kellystown Sawmills based in Clonsilla Village who among other things were coffin manufacturers transporting their products throughout the country on the Royal Canal. Robert's two sons, Robert (Rory) and Oliver took over the business and in 1979 The business was incorported becoming Cunninghams Funerals Ltd with Robert as Managing Director. In 1993 Robert died suddenly and the company passed to his wife Nuala and their four sons Ian, Robert (Robin), Michael and Andrew who now run the company.

Cunninghams has traditionally served an area bordered by Maynooth , Dunboyne, Ashbourne, Finglas, Navan Road, Chapelizod, Clondalkin, Newcastle and Celbridge, Lucan, Blanchardstown, Castleknock and of course Clonsilla.

Cunnighams, originally based in Clonsilla Village where they are amongst the oldest residents, opened their second funeral home in Lucan (the first purpose built funeral home in Dublin) in 1984, In 1995 they opened their funeral home in the former Methodist Church, Ardclough Road, Celbridge and in 2013 in The Old Presbytery at Church Avenue, Blanchardstown and in 2014 at Maynooth Road, Dunboyne.
