💨 Abstract

The council in Tunbridge Wells plans to build 20 homes on a former burial site in a cemetery, despite being aware that at least 11 bodies, including a baby, remain unexhumed. Local activists are outraged, accusing the council of deceit and immoral behavior. The council claims it acted with dignity and in consultation with the community, but residents insist that building over graves is wrong, regardless of the need for housing.
