An emotional appeal has been made to redesign and relocate a recently erected columbarium wall in a Co Cork graveyard that looks like "it was thrown up".

The design of the wall, which holds urns containing ashes at St Gobnait’s Cemetery, Mallow, was raised at a council meeting by Labour's Ronan Sheehan.
