She said that soon after her daughter’s funeral, the mementos, tributes and flowers that had been left were found thrown in a bin. And Ms Shackleton said she was left distraught after discovering – through a notice left by the burial site on Christmas Day last year – that maintenance work would be carried out and some of the trees would be cut down.

Bernadette Shackleton said she was disgusted to find out that some trees at the cemetery would be removed by a notice. She said that now “70 per cent” of the trees have been cut down at the site, adding: “They didn’t even have the decency to contact us directly or give an explanation. There's probably families out there who have no idea that this has happened. It’s disgusting.”has responded and said that in the original agreement with those who have had loved ones buried at the site, it stated that certain trees may have to be removed as part of the woodland management plan.

It said woodland burial sites were “subject to specific rules and regulations”. In this particular case, the council said numerous trees had been removed due to fungus. It added that it was “not practical” to contact the grave owners directly, which is why notices have been left.
