stockport council sent letter to grave owners at mill lane cemetery saying remove your gifts flowers ect by the 1st September 2018 or they will

the council have made there minds up already what they want and to try and change the cemetery into a lawn one after all these years would affect a lot of people who visit their loved ones and place flowers there, most people bought there graves there because of how beautiful it looks and we want it to stay looking this way as it has since 1993 and now they want to change it most grave owners maintain their own graves and tidy other graves near them
