Sadly this graveyard, for
all its historical significance, is in a sorry state of repair. Lets hope
that the council can include it in their regeneration programme of the
east-end and bring the graveyard back to its former glory and indeed
encourage visitors. I would also like to see local schools visiting this
graveyard to learn about these local martyrs..........learn from the
past use well the future.
