Roz the point is even if they do use the rec the problem of where to lay people to rest will still remain in the future.
70% of people now choose cremations over burials so why let them take well used land by the living for the few when they die just because it is the cheapest option.

It is important Roz you do not get blinded by the argument Southwark are putting forward. We should (and may I say are due to the Friends of Honor Oak Rec campaign) be telling Southwark to come up with another option and invest in the future.
The problem of burial space concerns the whole country not just us so why should we loose the rec for nothing!
