Grave stones damaged by fallen tree

A number of graves at Swaffham cemetery have been damaged as high winds at the weekend caused a beech tree to fall on them.

The beech tree, which was about 50ft (15m) high, is thought to have hit about 10 headstones, local resident Tony Garrod said.

"It's gone over two or three rows, there's a lot of damage and it's going to cost somebody a terrific amount of money to repair it all," he said.
