Appeal for Information: Vandalism in Retford Road Cemetery, Worksop

🚨 **Appeal for Information: Vandalism in Retford Road Cemetery, Worksop** 🚨

Since the beginning of March through to June 6th, someone has been drilling the base of trees in the Retford Road cemetery at Worksop and pouring diesel into them. These historic trees, which are around 120 years old, have stood since the cemetery’s opening and are vital to the site’s heritage. The graves near these trees date back even further.

If the trees cannot be saved, they will need to be removed, causing significant disturbance to local family graves that date back hundreds of years.

We need your help to find the person responsible for this damage. If you have any information, please contact us on 101 quoting crime number 24000340579, or anonymously via Crimestoppers at 0800 555 111.

Thank you for your assistance in preserving our community’s history.
