About the memorial: There is a small memorial garden in the centre of a car park where there used to be a cemetery. The church was founded before 1835 and closed in 1967. It had a school attached. The buildings were demolished around 1969 and they started to mark graves with yellow X's, then they began to move burials to Gig lane cemetery at Bury. Not all the graves were re-interred and the land was then filled in with waste and levelled off. A retail park now stands on the site. The WW1 graves mentioned on the memorial are now commemorated on a screen wall in Manchester Southern Cemetery.
