Conservationists warn against park graveyard plan
The Killarney Nature Conservation Group (KNCG) has come out strongly against a campaign targeting a roadside field on the edge of the park as being suitable to meet what could soon be a crisis situation regarding burial spaces.
Space in local graveyards is running out and Killarney Town Council and Kerry politicians have requested Environment Minister Dick Roche to provide a parcel of land for a new graveyard, in the Muckross area.
