Firstly I would suggest that you contact the cemetary offices to find out if there are actaully any gravestones on these plots.

I know from experience, that I trawled all the way from the edge of Sth London one Saturday morning to the outer edges of North London to visit and take photos of my g/grandmothers grave, only to find when I got there that there was nothing, zilch.  A completely wasted journey.

UPDATE:  No problem - only too glad to offer advice from my own experience.  It was also a very hot day and by the time I got home (was out about 6 hrs) was really fed up!!!
