Dalston St Michael's church grave removal plans approved

  • Description

    BBC Cumbria, 11 January 2020. "...Dalston Parish Council unanimously refused the extension at the village's Church of St Michael and All Angels. A planning survey found that the proposal would require the removal of headstones, and possibly bodies, from 17 graves dating between 1800 and 1914. However, Carlisle City Council has approved the scheme. City councillors were told by the Parochial Church Council applicants the plans to build a library and function room next to the church were vital to its future...."
