Anger over 'absolute mess' at Bulwell cemetery as mourners 'wade' through grass

Anger has been voiced over the condition of Bulwell Cemetery after photos emerged showing overgrown grass, almost covering a number of tombstones. A visitor to Northern Cemetery in Hempshill Lane, took to social media to raise concerns about the state of the cemetery, stating she was "disgusted" by the overgrowth and rubbish.

In a post in Bulwell Community group on Facebook, Tanya Simpson said: "Absolutely disgusted with the state of the Bulwell cemetery. Overgrown grass, rubbish everywhere... makes me sick to my stomach."

The images show large amounts of grass, which in some instances has reached the tops of gravestones. Others noted having a similar experience at the cemetery. One visitor added: "I went up on Saturday and it was an absolute disgrace after wading my way through long thick grass to put flowers on three graves."
