Hi Mike, I visited City Cemetery last year, not realizing how big it was. A very kind Gardener/Groundsman took pity on me and contacted the office, found out the plot numbers and took me straight to the plots I wanted. Play your cards right and you might be lucky too! Also I have since found out that the council usualy keep a record of all the plot numbers. ( Good luck, Julie.
