This cemetery has been a disgrace for years. I have had to repair my family grave 3 times at considerable cost. The 3rd time I asked permission of Kirklees for my grandson, a qualified stone mason, to be allowed to repair the stone and was refused because he did not have £1 million pound public liability insurance, the stone in question is approx 6" high, what harm could he have done?Living on Ravenshouse road I played with my friends in the cemetery but none of us ever went near a grave, my step mother refused to be burried along with my father because of the state the place was in, how sad is that? Five years ago, just after Batley cemetery was done up I was told Dewsbury would be next, yes next century maybe! Hang you heads in shame Kirklees.
