Right - A tremendous amount of work has been done on this side of the churchyard. All the old brambles, trees and rubble removed, ground levelled and topped up with top soil and finally seeded with grass seed. This has allowed a lot more light into the churchyard and village.

Right - This nice stoned wall enclosure and tomb, with fine iron railings is now totally overgrown. This will require quite a bit of work and effort to get back to its former glory.

Right - This area of the graveyard has been worked on throughout November 2006, with ivy and brambles being removed from both the grave and tombstones. The Yew trees have all had the ivy removed from the lower areas to allow them to see daylight again.
Also the drystone wall is now visible behind the Yew trees.

Right - These two crosses were kindly repaired by Doug Prosser (Funeral Director) who also repaired another gravestone free of charge which was damaged when a bough from one of the yew trees broke off in the high winds before Christmas. Doug also righted a gravestone of a previous Llanspyddid vicar which was beginning to lean quite heavily.
