Here is a video of the Cemetery we did a few months ago, I ventured right into it.  As you can see the graveyard is in a very sorry state:

After doing the video we were told the Cemetery was part of the Bradford-Holme Lane Congregational Church.

I'd like to catalogue those buried here to help people like yourselves and others.  However, it requires a lot of elbow grease to clean it all up, furthermore some of the graves have collapsed.

Hi does anyone know who owns the Holme Lane Chapel (tong street, Bradford) graveyard. 

I am concerned and would like to try to save it.  It is an important pieces of Bradford's history.

It has been previously ear marked for "destruction" and the bodies re-interred to allow for industrial units to be built on it.

Any help, contact or meet up appreciated.
