6 Goodgymmers met at Spital Cemetery armed with loppers, saws and secateurs, ready to do battle with the ivy and bushes which have taken over some of the gravestones. We split into two groups, each taking on a different area. Sue, Matthew ans Scarlett cleared several graves being taken over by hawthorn. What an amazing job they did and they even found a gravestone belonging to Mr Jonathan Found. Rachel, Maggie and Sheila tackled 2 graves hidden behind yew, ivy and some nasty brambles. One gravestone belonged to 8-year old Walter Charles Seaward, who died in 1863. After clearing, these graves, we could see an ivy-covered column rising deep within the inner reaches of the undergrowth. We were able to clear some of the ivy and yew, enough to determine that it is a stone cross, but the rest will have to wait for the next session.
