Description
Wildlife
Trees on this site are mostly lime and London plane. The grass between the graves, though kept tidy, is not over-manicured, allowing a profusion of common wildflowers, such as cat's ear, autumnal hawkbit and common mallow. The gravestones support good growths of lichens, though these have never been studied in detail.Facilities
