After having watched the saga of the gravestones being "laid down" by Lewes District Council, I am astounded that, firstly, none of the families seems to have been contacted and, secondly, that no one in the council seems to have had the nous to suggest a simple concrete fencing spur would probably solve the problem in most cases and at a modest cost to the grave's owner.
The older ones, whose owners could not be found, could surely be paid for by a modest charge on the rates, comparing perhaps with councillors' expenses.
