The following was agreed :- there will be a full cut of the churchyard including the removal of the cut grass in September this year. St. Mary’s PCC and BPC will be discussing detailed plans for the churchyard for 2025 to be agreed with South Hams which will include scheduled full cuts with the removal of the cut grass for February, June, and September and the edges of the older part of the church yard cut monthly from March to September and the grass removed. Additional plans will be drawn up to increase the number of cuts in the newer part of the churchyard and immediately to the north of the church and to identify with the help of a botanist small areas in the older part of the churchyard where wildflowers can be encouraged to grow which will be only cut 3 times a year but will allow access to graves through a series of paths. The intention is to reach a satisfactory balance between having a churchyard which is accessible for families and improving its biodiversity. 14th August 2024 |
