Protest over cemetery boundary

The protesters believe some graves lie beyond the boundary of the cemetery

Relatives of babies that died more than 30 years ago have been protesting in west Belfast.

They say thousands of unmarked graves lie outside the boundary of Milltown Cemetery and on the site of the Bog Meadows wildlife park.

Colette Clugston's son William died shortly after childbirth and she believes that he is buried in the area.

"It's terrible, I'm very angry with the Catholic church for doing what they done with Milltown Cemetery," she said.

"Those babies and adults should never have been in the Bog Meadows. Consecrated ground should never be sold over."

The Ulster Wildlife Trust owns the land and says it has spoken to the relatives and is awaiting maps which are currently being looked for by Milltown Cemetery.
