Have you done that one that is fenced off in Dudley? was it Queens st or somat
did you find who owned that one?
were they ever transcribed by anyone ie archives etc?

also that one in netherton have you done that Baptist cinderbank

Nice church at Wombourne....and Trysull small.

Have you done all the Dudley and RR ones etc now?

There are a few from St Martins, Tipton. They were moved when it was sold and placed just around the corner from the church.

There is a little church yard by St martins Tipton but I can never see how you access it as gates are always pad locked :-(
I've not heard of any under ground fires Pete at St Marks, I do know that volunteers have got together and given the churchyard a good makeover :-)

There's a few graves a St Leonard's Bilston too.
And I think some at the churches in wednesbury sorry unsure of the church names
Christchurch coseley, and also noticed some by Dark house Methodist Church coseley too x

Peterd be very careful if you go to the Victoria Road Quarry Bank cemetery,there are a lot of the graves that have fallen in and are partly covered with brambles,we dont want to lose you down one of them.
Good Luck.

Yes Pete, that's the one - you can still view it on You Tube. My son's friend bought it and he and his dad did all the work on it. They are both professional builders. Most of the gravestones were destroyed, just a few saved and placed in a little plot just around the corner. Not sure who we would need to contact, because as mjay says, there are gates on there and they are padlocked.

The address is given as Birmingham, that wasn't a mistake, it was because Dean didn't want loads of people turning up to have a look.
