Saint Thomas's, Greetland : Graveyard


The graveyard of St Thomas's Church, Greetland.

By 1928, the graveyard was becoming overcrowded. There were proposals to buy land to the north of the burial ground which was owned by the District Council. In 1931, the Council offered to sell the land. A house-to-house collection in Greetland and West Vale raised £160 in a week towards the purchase.
