	The problem is for MOD he cannot find a contact number. Having spent a couple of hours trying, all that seems to happen is you end up back at the picture of the cemetery or get directed to Roll of honour sites.

	How about contacting the local council in Folkestone? Even though they don't own it, I would imagine that they'd have some sort of contact details. Or how about a local undertaker, would they have a contact number perhaps? Mandy
