Knaresborough Cemetery deserves more care too
I see Mark Anthony Taylor (previous Stray Views) is unhappy with the way the grass is cut at Stonefall. You are lucky. We have had this for the past four years to my knowledge.
Knaresborough has seen even worse service with the grass cutting team regularly pulled off for six weeks at a time from cutting our cemetery grass. The response I got was they are letting it grow for biodiversity.
This was in the "new section" where it was thigh high in places. The team meanwhile were planting pretty flowers in Harrogate. Be grateful your grass is cut.
Jayne Jackson, Knaresborough

I totally agree that this should never be sold - it provides a safe place for wildlife, play areas and walks.
Harrogate Borough Council getting it wrong again.
