Some questions relating to the cemetery at Yardley.

1) Do all the grave plots face the same direction when viewed from
Yardley Wood road?

2) Approximately how many graves are there in Yardley?


3) Is there a specific area set aside for childrens burials?


thanks Neville..

I know the cemetery well as i cycle through it going to and from work. If you go on google earth it's quite clear that all the graves seem to be in the usual christian east west positions. Here is the council website for the cemetery and i'm sure if you phone or e-mail they would answer your questions......
