A FIELD historically used for football and dog walking in Overton has been earmarked for a 178-plot expansion to the village cemetery.
-
‘The patch of unclaimed land between the existing cemetery which sits on Church Road and St Mary's Avenue and the Overton and District Bowling Club is now subject to a planning application from Overton Community Council.
It wants to extend the existing cemetery, which has been in operation since 1901, to create 178 more burial plots and a new Garden of Remembrance.
‘The grass field identified for the extension is currently used as a community play area. It has a small set of football goals and is also used for dog-walking.
