We study a family of non-simple Lie conformal algebras $ \mathcal{W}(a,b,r) $ ($ a,b,r\in {\mathbb{C}} $) of rank three with free $ {\mathbb{C}}[{\partial}] $-basis $ \{L, W,Y\} $ and relations $ [L_{\lambda} L] = ({\partial}+2{\lambda})L,\ [L_{\lambda} W] = ({\partial}+ a{\lambda} +b)W,\ [L_{\lambda} Y] = ({\partial}+{\lambda})Y,\ [Y_{\lambda} W] = rW $ and $ [Y_{\lambda} Y] = [W_{\lambda} W] = 0 $. In this paper, we investigate the irreducibility of all free nontrivial $ \mathcal{W}(a,b,r) $-modules of rank one over $ {\mathbb{C}}[{\partial}] $ and classify all finite irreducible conformal modules over $ \mathcal{W}(a,b,r) $.

Keywords: Lie conformal algebras, finite conformal modules, irreducible.
