About this Event

Set against a backdrop of the fear of body-snatching this true story was reported in newspapers around the world.

Parking: There is a small car park in front of the cemetery as well as some on street parking on Livesey Street before the bridge.

Unfortunately there is no disabled access to the cemetery and uneven ground may make it unsuitable for those with mobility difficulties.
