Yep the flowers although pastic looked quite new and the grave was well weeded and tidy. I guess its a family plot so probably well visited. I guess its a sad fact that a lot of these boys are disappearing out of living memory, I think after that the graves start to be neglected.

Blackburn Cemetery




Corporal Spratt's headstone is weathering badly, I'd give it a clean but I don't want to do more harm than good, some of the lettering is very faint and the stains at the bottom are deeply ingrained. Any ideas?
