Mynwent Llanbeblig Cemetery

The cemetery at Image has been in a disgraceful state for many years. There are a number of war graves and the Commonwealth Graves Commission declared the state of the cemetery as unacceptable. A few years ago volunteers from the Royal Welch Fusiliers embarked on clearing the area http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/wales/north_west/6174122.stm. Despite their efforts, most of the brambles and undergrowth have been allowed to overrun the greater part of the cemetery and evidence of vandalism, drinking and drug taking are everywhere.
