Audlem Cemetery, Audlem, Cheshire
General view
In the late 19th century and early 20th, those who could not afford a funeral and burial were interred "on the parish" with the costs being born by the local council. These burials of paupers were in common graves, with at times having seven persons in the same plot. Buried — just wrapped in a sheet.
