“Those who contacted me raised concerns surrounding access to the graveyard. The terrain is in a poor state and needs urgent attention. In addition the laneway used to access the graveyard becomes increasingly difficult in wet weather.
“This is a council managed graveyard and although it dates back to the 13th century it is still in use today. I have asked council to review the maintenance and upkeep of the graveyard.
“I have also requested the resurfacing of the lane used to access the graveyard.”
