Tessa, Sue and Sheila turned out to help Friends of Spital Cemetery with their first tidy-up session of the season. We split into two groups, with Sue's group tackling a bush which had completely covered one grave. With 4 people tackling it, the bush was soon removed, and the gravestone and surround are now visible. What a transformation! Meanwhile Tessa and Sheila tackled a few smaller projects, removing ivy before it could take a proper hold. Unfortunately we could not read some of the inscriptions on the stones - we would love to know some of the family stories. Unfortunately the Heavens then opened (appropriately enough!), and heavy rain stopped play for now
