lived in England for years, it's very common to push all the headstone to the side of the field and turn it into a playground.

not like those corpses are going to complain.

    It's not common, it was part of a big revamp in the 19th century when overcrowding and grossly unsanitary burial conditions pushed them to the development of the Magnificent Seven and other mitigations

    Kids do tend to make 6 foot holes in the non sandbox part of playgrounds, totally normal children behaviour in parks.

    /s

    it's England, every town has countless historical graveyards of people who died centuries ago, might as well do something useful with that green space.
