Limerick clampdown on large headstones

NOT even one’s last resting place is sacred as council officials pursue, to the grave, people who flout planning laws.

Limerick County Council has launched a huge clampdown on large headstones erected without permission in local cemeteries.

In recent days, council workers removed a large crucifix erected on top of a headstone in Reilig Mhuire graveyard near Askeaton.
