Royal Gazette: Church slated for mismanaging graveyard alterations

Retroactive plans for works at a Southampton graveyard which raised concerns about the handling of remains have been rejected by the Development Applications Board.

But the application sparked an objection from the Bermuda National Trust, which voiced concerns about the disturbance of graves.
