Cemetery benches

I am struggling at the moment with a 'bench policy' for the cemetery. Burial plots are obviously very precious places to those whose loved ones are buried there. Some people never visit graves but there are others who can't stay away. Strong feelings arise.

We don't want a completely regimented site. At the same time graves can become surrounded by clutter and festooned with bits and pieces. Our bench policy is aimed at dealing with anyone bringing garden furniture to place near the grave of a family member.


However convenient it is, it is not ultimately going to work if that happens all over the place. So, back to the drawing board.
