Burial ground land purchases

We have received the following email from the diocese of St Albans:


Dear Ms Davey-Hunt
Since I last wrote our Agent has consulted the tenant who currently occupies the land in which your council is interested.  He has indicated that he is not minded to surrender his tenancy and it follows, therefore, that the Glebe Committee will not be able to take the matter further. I am sorry that I am sending a reply which will not be welcome to your council.
Yours sincerely
Nigel Benger
The St Albans Diocesan Board of Finance





This refers to some land running parallel to the cemetery which we wished to purchase, first to ensure that we had enough land to meet the village's eventual burial needs and secondly to provide space for allotments in the medium term.
