ST PAUL’S MEMORIALS FOR REMEDIAL WORK A safety inspection has taken place in the churchyard recently which has revealed that the memorial gravestones listed below require attention to ensure that they are in a safe condition.Families of the deceased are liable for the maintenance and safety of their gravestones.If we have not had contact from families within 2 months of this notice then St Paul’s Church Council will have to take the necessary action to make the gravestones safe which may include laying some of them down flat.Please contact us as soon as possible and we can explain the options to make the gravestone safe. We will give you the opportunity to contact a local stonemason to carry out the work. Unfortunately, we cannot allow DIY work in the graveyard as the gravestones are very heavy and could cause injury.We may be able to arrange the necessary repair with a local stonemason on your behalf. If this is agreed, we will give you an idea of the cost before going ahead.Please contact Rev Tracy Swindells 01772 679515 revtswindells@aol.com or Church Warden Jackie Ridealgh on 07983486281 jackieridealghcwstpauls@gmail.com *First group of memorials to have remedial work done on a rolling programme as church finances allow.
