St Mary's Church is applying to the church authorities for a Faculty (equivalent to planning permission) to replace the grass in the Garden of Remembrance with chippings. This work is to ease maintenance of the area.
The work will involve laying a weed membrane directly below the memorial stones after skimming off the turf.
There will be no disturbance to the interred ashes.
Maintenance of the churchyard is the responsibility of the Parish Council, enhanced by the hard work of a small team of volunteers who give up some of their time to maintain it in its current state.
Notices are being displayed in the Garden, indicating to whom any representations should be made, together with a closing date for comments.
Please note that the picture is of the churchyard, NOT the Garden of Remembrance.
If you wish to have further information, please contact Conrad Oatey: Tel 852549 or email the church on stmarys@eastleake.net .
