The McClelland & Slessor Funeral Home
combines the warmth of the historical
charm of the original home built in 1905
with the feeling of space achieved from
the various improvements and expansions
made over the years. We welcome you to
tour our facilities by visiting our location
or you can browse our on-line

We are conveniently located at
152 Bradford Street which is a continuation
of Essa Road (Highway 27), one of the
main off-ramps from Highway 400. We are
also easily accessible from the 400 via
Dunlop Street and are situated in very
close proximity to Highway 11 South and
to Bayfield Street . Please visit our
Contact & Directions section for a
map and specific directions.
Visitation Rooms & Chapel
152 Bradford Street was constructed
as a family home (circa. 1905) and was
converted to a funeral home in 1936. Over
the years, several additions, renovations
and improvements have created a very functional
and spacious funeral establishment while
maintaining the warmth of a home.
The visitation rooms are quaintly decorated,
spacious and can adapt from a smaller,
more intimate gathering or can expand
to accommodate the largest of visitations.
The funeral chapel and adjoined rooms
can seat 200 for families who prefer to
have the service at the funeral home.
A separate room adjoined to the funeral
chapel is available to families on the
day of the service. This allows families
to focus on the funeral message in a more
private atmosphere.
After Funeral Receptions
Our on-site facilities can accommodate
after funeral receptions, removing the
burden from the family. Our friendly receptionist
will take care of all the details from
set-up to serving and even the clean-up
afterwards. A tasty selection of finger
foods can be ordered by us, or families
can arrange for food to be delivered to
us. Coffee & tea and cream and sugar
are always provided at no charge. A minimal
fee applies for the use of the lounge
and to cover the additional staffing requirements.
Parking
Plenty of parking is available
on our lot. For larger gatherings, free
street parking is available on the smaller,
residential streets located off Bradford
Street .
Accessibility
Our visitation rooms and chapel
are located on the main level, accessible
by a ramp directly off of our parking
lot. A washroom is available on the main
level, equipped with a baby change station.
Our upper level lounge is accessible by
chairlift for those who have difficulty
with stairs.
