Introduction
In 1973-4 the lower ground was made into a playground with gravestones ranged along the boundaries, and the upper ground into a garden of rest. In 2000 the church created a new community garden, Eden at St Paul's, on part of the former burial ground separated from the main churchyard by Matrimony Place.
