Ok...not too sure how to describe a cemetery. This one is large, looking like your usual local cemetery
A place of sending dead people there
Looks good now but not all the time.
I was lucky to have managed to find my late Aunt's pauper's grave after enlisting the help of the staff at Hither Green Crematorium, who gave me a map. The grave isn't marked in any way, but we were able to trace it as being right behind another large war grave. I was able to leave a single rose on the spot. Trying to search for other ancestors graves was totally impossible because of the overgrowth of grass, weeds, bushes and so on. There was no way an able bodied person could have got in there without a machete, let alone a disabled person such as myself. Having travelled some distance to find several family graves, I was bitterly disappointed. I know there are other things to warrant spending money on, but couldn't they set tasks like this for those doing community service? It's such a shame to see it all left to go wild. Now that finding one's ancestry has become more popular, you would think that it would be kept under control. I'm afraid I don't agree with the 'returning it to nature' ruse as a way of covering up not caring for it. People who made these areas what they are today are resting there. The least we could do is show them some respect by keeping it clear so that their descendants can come and pay their respects to them.
B&L Cemetery is beautiful place as nature has been allowed to take back much of the area. It is still available for for interments too. So while it may appear to be a little unloved, it is certainly carefully cared for by the small maintenance team who work there. Many of my ancestors are buried here, including both my parents.
