Area K and Clusters w, x and y

Overview

There are a significant number of in-situ graves scattered around the large wooded area K.. Most are quite readable and accessible. This is also the case for the gravestones in Clusters w and x, although the latter is somewhat overgrown and access difficult in places., Cluster y by contrast is difficult to access (which is only possible from the north) and many of the gravestones are in very poor condition.
