Oh yes, I'd forgotten the rain. We've had it here too but not much flooding fortunately.

just driven past this graveyard.

its REALLY overgrown now plus the fencing around it is pretty high with a chain around the gate, padlocked so I'm not sure how you gain access to it now.

Theres alot of new houses being built next door to it aswell so its a little muddy right now

I read your message and thought surely not, not after all these years.
I asked my wife if she would drive me there to check it out, ( I am disabled) sure enough it has been fenced in, as we drove up, three workmen drove away.
Apparently while I was in a hospital, a petition went around requesting it was regenerated, I hope it is to do that, and not simply remove the stones.

if I get chance today (I'm at work) I will try and contact the council and see whats happening with it

it seems a bit odd that only one side of the cemetary is fenced off and the other left open though

I finally received an answer to the many phone calls on this cemetary. At first no-one had any idea of the whereabouts of the key, but today I received this email from the bereavements dept.

Unfortunately I am unable help with regards to the gates at the Sculcoates Cemetery. The cemetery is still actually owned by the Diocese of York.
I have today spoken to Mr Tony Saxby telephone number 318025 or 331946 who has advised that he is aware there is a chain on the gate, but it should not be locked. Please do not hesitate to contact Mr Saxby, from the area team should you have an further queries

I hope this helps any visitors wanting to gain access

I happened to go past Sculcoates cemetery today, as we passed we stopped near the gates, about four city council vans were parked up, a gang of workmen were clearing the overgrown grave yard, It looks like they are cutting it well back, I hope so and not getting ready to clear the old stones that are leaning over, but they will need to spend a considerable sum to straighten them up...Fingers crossed, I shall keep you informed.

Hello,I am sure that the Kingston General Hospital on Beverley Road WAS the old Sculcoates Workhouse/hospital.Just as the old Anlaby Road Hospital(Western General) was the old workhouse /hospital there too-that is now the Hull Royal Infirmary-which has replaced the old one from in Prospect St. My mother in 1950s had spells in both of the hospitals,Kingston G and Western G.Hope this helps.I was born -lived in Hull for years,my sister and members of the family are still there.Jeano
