Excellent upload and very interesting... I've said it before - Graham is an unsung hero of Bradford, and our city is all the better for the services of him and his team!
A wonderful job, You all need to be recognised by the Bradford City Council for your work. I know this will never happen, so from myself To the Team WELL DONE 10/10 ***** 5 Stars and thank you for the video.
Wonderful to see this grave repaired for the dignity of the passed and possibly prevent someone falling in well done everyone Hard graft like to see more of this care shown in other church grounds.
Can you please pass on our gratitude to Graham and his team for the wonderful work that they do restoring these graves. Also thanks to you Riaz for highlighting this cemetery on one of your previous videos, we have a connection to a family grave with an inscription to their son who was killed on the first day on the Somme that we researched into. We went to visit it after your first video, so thank you so much for all that you do. We plan to go back and to tidy the grave up again but the place has difficult terrain. 👏
@@BradfordThroughTheLens Riaz, You highlighted the cemetery during some research I was doing. The grave is in a bit of a mess not far from the main entrance. The family plot Number is D133. Stead Taylor and Mary Elizabeth Taylor and also George Stead Taylor of the Bradford Pals Killed in action 1st July 1916 aged 19, his body was never found so his name is on the Thiepval Memorial in France (2A 2C 2D) yet his parents added him to a the side stone marking in tribute.
Thank you Gentlemen for your endeavours in preserving your local history and showing respect to the people buried there alas too many burial grounds and Cemeterys are neglected in a disrespectful attempt to save councils money or to close them to sell off for future building projects Well done and more power to you and your project.
These Cemeteries definitely deserve to be restored and respected as they were. when first made they also have a place in educating people about the subject of Death and how to respect the different Values this has for all cultures.The Victorians made Death part of life unfortunately most younger people shy away from this fact.

Excellent work, grave looks 100% better now. One thing though, maybe instead of painting over the lead lettering with paint, maybe just rub patinatious oil over the letters to bring them back to the their original darkness to stand out against the stone. Great video, great work. New subscriber to your channel. Thanks for sharing
See so many crosses these days fallen over. They must need a stronger foundation. I watch 'stranger things' on utube. He's always saying lots of crosses are now falling over. Kudos to these guys.
Please support this channel by liking this video. Thank you.
Top blokes...they volunteer to do that which has to be the ultimate respect for the dead and their families ✔️
The volunteers did an outstanding job. I cannot express enough gratitude for their dedication to restoring this long-neglected grave.

@@BradfordThroughTheLens It was VERY INFORMATIVE!! For example, I NEVER knew some graves had multiple chambers to bury multiple family members in!!
Fantastic team work 👏. I like to walk around cemeteries but to see the vandalised one's it heart breaking.
They are amazing places and are full of history. Definitely heart breaking 💔
Amazing job , so much better 😮
