Fatal Accidents (Gravestones)
- Question
- How many people have been killed by falling gravestones in church graveyards in the last 20 years.
- Answer
-
The number is not recorded centrally but I understand from the Ecclesiastical Insurance Group, which insures almost all Church of England churches, that it has received no claims relating to such fatalities in the last 10 years—the period for which figures are available.
