Poole, burial ground gravestones

Re-erected gravestones in old burial ground, alongside West Street. The burial ground replaced an earlier one in St James' churchyard, which was prone to flooding, with the risk of corpses being resurrected. But the council has other plans for a pleasant open space; it must give way to road improvements. Nothing may stand in the way of progress. http://www.bournemouthecho.co.uk/news/poole/4037120.Burial_site_to_make_way_for_Hill_revamp/
