No the stones you walk on were covering graves in different parts of the church yard.
What nicer, therefore, to move the gravestones,to the lovely spot they have suggested, under new trees and a profusion of daffodils, so that people can read about our ancestors in a lovely setting. Bet no-one ever read them when they were laid flat as a pathway. I know I didn't.
I think they should be restored to their original positions.
