Hi I live quite  near the cemetery and though I`ve not been through this past year, section N is one of the worst for flattened gravestones as its on the steepest part of the hill. I`d say almost all of those on the top half of the section are lying flat, mostl face down and some further down also.

I used to think it was terrible vandalism, which I`m sure in some parts of the cemetery it is. But I think in that section the weight of the stones and shape of the hill has caused the larger amount to fall.
