Yesterday Andy and Scott continued their quest to uncover more of Milnrow’s heritage by uncovering more of our hidden gravestones. It’s hard graft but uncovering the stones and revealing names of those who lived and worked in Milnrow before the turn of the century is a real reward.
Check out the stones revealed so far in the before and after pictures below. If you look carefully there’s an awful lot of stones in our yard!
Thanks Andy and Scott, great job.
On Saturday 23rd September we held our latest Churchyard Clear-up Session. A massive “thank you” to Jan, Lilian, Andy, Scott, Johnny, Trevor and Walter who completed another 4 hours hard slog mowing, pruning, planting, generally clearing up and yes … painting railings.
Our plan is to continue through the autumn and winter so our churchyard will look better than it’s done for years.
