CREEPY little query from Janet Fenney of Crawford Street, Clock Face.

She writes: "When the old Congregational church was demolished in St Helens town centre, I believe that human bones were dug up (also some by the parish church when the square was pedestrianised).

"Do any of your readers know where these remains were re-buried ?" she asks. "And if so, can they say whether these were they placed in one communal grave, with something to this effect carved on a headstone?"

Anyone able to get down to the bones of the matter could kindly write to Whalley's World at the Star.
